Successful career ahead for Sean
Sean Glen has recently taken up the appointment of Co-Director with RMG Electrical in Dublin. The company was formed in May of this year and has already completed two jobs for high-profile clients. In addition, the workforce has grown from three to 15 members with the company actively looking to recruit more staff. Sean began his career with CJK Electrical as a second-year apprentice. From there he left Ireland and took time out to travel around Australia returning to his home country in 2013. He was re-employed as an electrician with CJK and in 2015 was offered a Chargehand role where he learned from some of the best in the industry. In 2016 Sean accepted the role of Site Foreman and two years following this he decided he wanted to further his career and asked CJK about the possibility of further education. He attended
Dublin Business School studying an Advanced Diploma in Project Management and completed the course in 2019. Sean went on to commence his appointment as Project Manager for CJK before deciding he wanted to start his own venture on a new path and start-up his own business. Speaking to Ireland’s Electrical Magazine, Sean said: “My time with CJK was exceptional from day one and staff there treated me like family. I can’t thank everyone at CJK enough for the constant support and motivation throughout my career and to always exceed my expectations of myself.” RMG Electrical are keen to hear from new apprentices and electricians and anyone looking for a new challenge.
