Summary

Experienced and professional Property and Facilities Manager with over a decade of proven history in Irish and international projects.

As well as having a wealth of experience in managing both domestic and commercial facilities, I also have over 20 years experience in the construction industry.

I believe this gives me an advantageous perspective from both the Facility Management and contractor viewpoints and enhances my contract management skills.
