Meet Giorgio, an Operations Manager and country lead for Gleeds Italy. Giorgio brings with him over 20 years of experience leading construction projects across Europe.
A civil engineer by trade, his skills in strategy and keen eye for detail make him an integral cog in the Gleeds machine.
Giorgio joined Gleeds having previously started his career in Civil Engineering and then migrating over to Project Management. He had worked with Gleeds as an external consultant and had quickly become interested in the different phases of construction, project strategy and people management.
I came across Gleeds while working on projects in the UK with previous employers and their reputation in the construction sector was very strong. I was particularly attracted by the idea of working for an independent construction consultancy with a strong international profile as I liked the idea of being able to experience new sectors.
Giorgio’s introduction to Gleeds gave him the opportunity to work in a broad range of projects where he was able to consistently try new things and provide different types of services across multiple countries in Europe before deciding to permanently move to Italy. He has subsequently managed a plethora of projects, ranging from the retail sector across to large scale date centres. His attention to detail and excellent management skills saw him quickly progress up to a regional level, where he now leads our Italian business.
I have been always impressed by the level of professionalism and technical knowledge of my colleagues and the collaborative environment in which we work.
When asked what he loves most about Gleeds, Giorgio believes it’s the collaborative and supportive approach to work which our culture embodies. Giorgio feels that the best way to maximise a career at Gleeds is to seize any chance to enrich your career through our international portfolio of offices and projects and try out new regions and sectors as much as you can.
Gleeds gives you the opportunity to be involved on high profile projects and grow your professional and personal skills like no other company I’ve worked for before.
