Feb 2002 - Jun 2005
The Belfast-based Larsen group of companies offers specialist products and services to the construction and related industries. Larsen Contracts offers services in concrete repair, specialist industrial coatings and flooring. I was appointed as Project Manager for the Ballymun façade remedials project (sponsored by Dublin City Council) which required the application of specialist chemical waterproofing system to a large number of high rise buildings inhabited by council tenants. This very challenging project lacked of any formal work site area being permitted and therefore required mobile, secure work areas to be setup within busy public areas at each location daily, tracking work as it progressed. Challenges included maintaining public and site safety whilst working at height, difficulites of staff and equipment security whilst operating in a socially deprived locality and transportation/storage of heavy equipment in a busy town centre location whilst maintaining a program of ‘dry’ outdoor works in inclement weather conditions. The work was completed using 11 teams working from suspended cradles and ‘cherry pickers.’ I had overall responsibility for program management, job allocation, resource allocation, quality control, supply chain, H & S, recruitment and training. I also liased with all stakeholder groups throughout the project regularly reporting to sponsors, consultants, directors and residential groups. Show less
