Phil McGeehan

IT Manager

As Phil works for SMD Construction Group, he manages the IT for all the group companies, including SMD Ltd.

Eclectic, stereotypical IT techy and human cyborg, Phil’s favourite saying, “have you tried turning it off and on again” is ironic, as more often than not, it works! Originally joining SMD as a CAD Technician he worked on many notable buildings including the Francis Crick Institute among many others. Phil progressed to his current role of IT Manager, using his encyclopaedia-like knowledge of coding and computers. He is often found expanding and updating the in-house databases (that Phil built from scratch) and assisting with staff with technical matters.

When Phil isn’t glued to his screen in the corner of the office, he is extremely passionate about beer, he has brewed his own beer with each creation getting better each time. He uses an API on his own website where he shares different beers and ales that he has tries at his local pub. The pub landlord really likes Phil. An avid, sub two-hour, half marathon runner he often enters charity events to raise money for local charities and also to improve his time.
