Dr Jackie Portman DBEnv., MSc., BEng(Hons), ACGI, CEng, FCIBSE, FIET, MCIOB, is a highly accomplished building services engineering project manager with an enviable track record of delivering complex multi-million pound infrastructure and construction projects within budget and operational standards. She graduated in electrical engineering from Imperial College, University of London and too her first steps into the construction industry. She was attracted by the exciting, challenging, ever-changing and all-encompassing nature of the construction industry: where there are always new challenges and areas of interest and has never looked back. She has worked in consultancy, main-contracting, building services sub-contracting, project management and client organisations in Europe, Africa, Asia and the Middle East. She has led the project management process of a range of projects in terms of complexity, size and uses: university complexes (libraries, archive buildings, state of the art education and research facilities), healthcare projects (wards, laboratories, clinical areas), single and mixed-use commercial office complexes, residential developments and schools. She has always been keen to enthuse and motivate students and trainees and has used her 'hands-on' perspective to support full-time academics and teachers. She has been a visiting lecturer at the University of the West of England and the City of Bristol College: also, contributing to the development of the syllabuses, in particular, ensuring the relevance to current industry trends and requirements. She obtained her doctorate from the University of the West of England, researching into ways and means of improving the contribution of building services engineers to the building design process: looking at how they are perceived by the rest of the construction industry and what tools and processes would help improve their performances.
