As the Country Director for UAE in the Middle East, Jonathon leads the operations in a region bursting with opportunities and interesting challenges. He spearheads a team of talented professionals and ensures that Gleeds remains ahead of the competition.

His dynamic role means his schedule is always changing, but alongside his leadership responsibilities, he always values dedicated time with his clients. Witnessing his people and projects grow and succeed is what keeps him motivated. After first joining Gleeds at the age of eighteen, Jonathon then gained experience with various different organisations before finding his way back to Gleeds in 2013. Although he was always fond of his first job, his choice to return was largely rooted in Gleeds’ people-centric culture.

His advice for those joining Gleeds is to take advantage of all the opportunities on offer. Regardless of the position a person starts with, Gleeds has an open culture and is a great place to grow your career.

Gleeds gives you the opportunity to grow, spread your wings, and diversify - it's a company that's focused on people and their development.

One of Jonathon's most notable achievements is his contribution to the growth of Gleeds' business in the UAE. Under his leadership, the team have delivered significant projects which now serve as regional landmarks. His vision and drive have helped solidify Gleeds in the region. In his free time, Jonathon spends quality time with his family and friends, travelling, cycling, and socialising.
