Project Manager

Imperial College London

I worked as a Project Manager for Imperial College London delivering a number of projects for a world top-ten University and the only UK University to specialise in Science, Engineering, Medicine, and Business.

Lendlease

During this time I was sponsored by multinational Property, Construction and Investment firm Lendlease through my current Construction Project Management degree as an Undergraduate. 

I worked on various projects during my time away from University. In September 2017 I finished a 6 month placement working on the One Bishopsgate Plaza project in the City of London and I worked on a number of prestigious projects across London whilst working for Lendlease's Consulting Division on my placement year.

Sponsored Undergraduate

While on my placement year, I spent one year working with Lendlease Consulting at a variety of locations across the company's Heritage, Arts & Education Portfolio. I had roles at the Science Museum, The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC) and The Houses of Parliament as an Assistant Project Manager. 

At the Science Museum, the role involved assisting in the development and construction of the new 3000sqm Medicine Galleries and other projects under the first phase of SMG's Masterplan Programme.

At RBKC, the role was to manage the design and construction of both a new primary school and special needs school on Barlby Road. There is an already existing school on site, which creates added challenges to the project.

At Parliament, the role included managing the ongoing Elizabeth Tower restoration works, as well as the conservation of Westminster Hall.

I also worked on the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games Athlete's Village, helping to form logistics and procurement strategies for the project.

Undergraduate Project Manager

I worked as a member of the Lendlease Construction Team at our One Bishopsgate Plaza Project, as an Assistant Construction Manager. 

My role was extremely varied, with duties on site and off site. On site, it ranged from completing pre-pour checks, keeping health and safety standards and managing logistics, whereas off site it was more management and administrative work. This included package and NCR meetings as well as quality assurance. 

While on the project, I also had the role of Environment and Sustainability Coordinator, meaning I dealt with all environmental tasks including the project metrics (water, energy and waste), along with sustainability tasks such as FSC accreditation and environmental audits.

My responsibilities also included management of façade packages (both design and installation of timber windows and bath stone elements) and site logistics, as well as general management of the site. A few of my skills used included stakeholder management, programme writing and reporting.
