The Chartered Institute of Building has named Marc Burton MBE as a finalist for the 2021 Construction Manager of the Year Awards, in the Healthcare category.
Marc told Channel Eye: “I am extremely honoured and proud to have been nominated as a finalist in this year’s CMYA, representing both the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) and the Jersey Construction industry. My submission was based on leading the team in delivering the Jersey General Hospital – Nightingale Wing, a truly remarkable project which saw the construction of a 180 bed fully functional hospital on a greenfield site in just 25 days.
“The integrated working and collaboration of 83 local businesses and over 520 local people on site highlighted an unbelievable example of the Jersey construction industry coming together”.
Focusing on people rather than projects CMYA, run by the Chartered Institute of Building, offers a unique chance for managers in construction to compare themselves with their peers. It is the gold standard of award accolades. The competition has been running for more than 40 years. It is open to all site-based and programme managers, whether they are CIOB members or not
Caroline Gumble Chief Executive of the CIOB said: “Our CMYA competition seeks out the very best of leadership and talent in our sector so my congratulations to everyone who’s made it to the finalists list this year. These awards are a barometer for the management talent in our sector and those who have reached the final are an example of excellence in construction. We applaud them and their professionalism.”
Finalists in this year’s final represent billions of pounds of built assets. Each category has a Gold and Silver medal winner, the overall winner, Construction Manager of the Year, is chosen from the Gold Medallists.
Medallists and the overall winner will be crowned at an awards evening at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London on 29th September 2021.
