Managed 2 large projects entirely. Responsible for key customers, 10 managers, 50 labourers, and 10 subcontractors.

Oil pipeline construction project, Aramco

Planned and delivered a SAR100m complex Hot Tapping project for Aramco. Led from design and budget through
mobilisation, site preparation, civil work, manufacture, piping, hot tapping, and construction. Set up access and
determined all equipment requirements. Appointed and briefed all subcontractors. Inspected and tested.
● Brought a 2-month overdue project with 50 outstanding tasks up to date within 3 weeks.
● Delivered the project in 3 months instead of the planned 6 months. Completed within the original timescale.
● Safely oversaw the installation of 3 Valves (MOV), waterline rerouting, lifting, and civils work.

Water storage construction project, SWCC

Planned and budgeted a SAR600m water storage project for SWCC on 11 water tanks of 1.4 million metres3. Inspected
the site, and cost and reviewed all construction activities (excavation, foundations, removal, and site remediation).
● Saved SAR40m by optimising the operating model. Analysed lifecycle costs of completing the work by buying or
renting the necessary equipment or subcontracting everything.

Led the entire process to develop BESS ESS power systems and battery packs for medical, military, and electric vehicle applications. Clients included Bosch, 3M, Arthrex, Emeno, Torrot, & Milrem Robotics. Managed 2 project managers & 2 apprentices. Coordinated 4 departments (Electrical, Mechanical, Purchasing, and Production).

● Consulted clients leading to agreements to deliver £10m of new business and a £34m sales pipeline.
● Milrem, Tank Energy Storage System (ESS), 440 units: Principally designed. Completed Specification/Compliance
Matrix, Risk Assessment, and Design and Production For Manufacture Engineering Analysis (DFMEA/PFMEA).
● Bosch, Powertool Power & Charging System, 1000+ units: Took over a 12-month project that was 3 months behind
in material & certification delays, with impending cancellation. Re-built the client relationship and managed
stakeholders, timeline, supply chain, and dependencies. Implemented software workarounds. Retained the
customer (£32m recurring revenue). Concluded the project within a week of the original schedule.
● Arthrex, Power and Charging Systems for handheld devices, 1000+ units: Project managed mass production of 5
different items. Renegotiated contract terms and brought agreement within a process that was hampered by
changes. Delivered a quarter ahead of the schedule. Retained a £1.5m recurring revenue stream.

Partnered with the business clients to deliver business-critical novel technology.

Delivered large-scale systems for the offshore energy sector. Designed, built, installed, and commissioned globally for clients such as DEME, lemants, and Grahams. Led Senior Engineer, Quality Officer, apprentice, and subcontractors.

● Developed the largest Impress Current Cathodic Protection (ICCP) system (£2m) for an offshore substation.
● Managed a £1.6m ICCP system for a 26-turbine wind farm for Deme. Designed and delivered 56 Anode Rings, 26
control systems, and 6km+ cabling. Developed an installation method using Remote Operated Vehicles (ROV).
● Managed & completed a £500k project for a 200m harbour and 100+ piles in Scotland with Grahams Construction.
Analysed architectural drawings and topological data. Led the design and delivery of the sacrificial anode system.
● Invented a novel grommet system to protect existing underwater cables during installation. Researched, developed,
and tested internally & externally. Saved £500k per project. The product is now used widely.
● Redesigned an ultrasonic transducer product to be manufactured and installed differently to optimize performance
in situ for pipelines. Ensured it was more securely held but allowed free movement of the circuit.

Construction of property, maintenance and repair.
Building Houses, CAD and Architecturally designed, costed and completed residential contracts.

Designed, manufactured, and installed intake and exhaust systems for gas and nuclear turbines in the Oil and Gas power generation
sector. Fully designed and installed systems and carried out EPC civils work for Siemens, GE, Mitsubishi, & Rolls Royce.

● Completed a rotation with 3-6 months in every department: Sales, Applications Engineering, Mechanical Design,
Electrical Design, Fabrication, Quality & Inspection, Logistics, Project Management, and Purchasing / Supply Chain.
● Developed an inlet cooling system that improves turbine performance in use by 3% to 5%. Applied an Adiabatic
cooling system to gas turbines for the first time. The system is now used widely.
● Invented an automatic shipping tracker for logistics management, now used by others in the business.
