F1 Theme Park Dubai - overseeing the installation of the services in prepration for the rides and buildings

Boulevard Central Towers Dubai - 2 towers on the downtown development. 5m think piled raft foundation. The largest concrete pour was circa 6500m3 which took around 38 hours to complete. Pre cast panel facade.

Qasr Al Muwaiji Al Ain - The construction of a museum to commemorate the life of Sheikh Zayed. This is an all glass building, floors, walls, ceilings with what was then a bespoke cooling system. The exhibition containers were designed and built to museum specifications

Chicago Maintenance and Construction

This is the construction company owned by Sunny Varkey of GEMS. Whilst working for CMC I delivered a number of schools for GEMS throughout the UAE, most notably was the extension to GEMS Wellington school on SZR that was delivered over the summer break. That was first pile to hand over and occupation.

Whilst at CMC I set up an internal MEP Division, an internal FM Division, a Joinery Factory and a Chinese Direct Sourcing Company. I also set up planning, design, QA and H&S departments internally all of which gave the programme certainty and control needed to deliver on time.
