Meet Ciaran Harrison: Durkin's Project Engineering Prodigy

With a knack for steering our locating and surveying team through the complexities of tier-one projects, Ciaran Harrison, our much loved Project Engineer, embodies the essence of 'The Durkin Difference', elevating our standards and surpassing client expectations.

Ciaran's journey from picturesque Western Ireland to the project sites of Australia is a testament to his adaptability and zest for growth. Having honed his skills on multi million-Euro residential projects back in Ireland, his transition to managing high-stake assignments at Durkin has been seamless, reflective of his global experience.

At the heart of his role lies the coordination and management of our surveying teams across projects. By providing clear and organised daily scopes, ensuring resource availability, and liaising with subcontractors, Ciaran ensures the smooth progression of our ventures, marking each milestone with the signature Durkin efficiency.

But what truly sets Ciaran apart is his joy in team collaboration. Echoing his days on the Gaelic football and Hurling fields of Kilkelly, his team spirit translates into his professional environment, fostering a harmonious and productive workspace.

Reflecting on his most cherished childhood memories, Ciaran fondly recounts the August bank holiday fairs of his hometown, brimming with music, crafts, and the communal joy of traditional potato picking competitions. It is this grounding in community and shared experiences that enriches his approach to project management, and that our team benefits from.

Beyond the realms of engineering, Ciaran carries a sense of pride in his personal milestones, notably his completion of tertiary education and his triumphant stint with the Mayo under-21 all-Ireland winning team in 2016. Ciaran enjoys the simple pleasures of sports, friendship, and is captivated by the world of aviation, inspired by his childhood proximity to Ireland West Airport Knock.

Ciaran Harrison is not just a Project Engineer; he is a beacon of Durkin's ethos, a blend of professional excellence and personal integrity. As we spotlight his contributions, we celebrate not just the engineer, but the individual who brings his whole self to elevate every project and team he is part of.
