Meet Wilson! He’s one of our UAE-based Senior QC Coordinators and has worked at Fulkrum since 2020. 

• What is your background/career history prior to joining Fulkrum? 

I graduated from Mumbai University in 2008 with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. For over ten years, I have worked for leading industry experts across the Middle East in various inspection and coordination roles.

• Can you give an insight into your working day at Fulkrum?

My role involves sharp focus and around-the-clock responsiveness. I always start the day by checking urgent emails or inspection notifications from clients to ensure their needs are being met quickly and dealt with efficiently. Afterwards, I meet with my manager to go through the report submission and have a general discussion about day-to-day operations in the branch.

• What do you enjoy most about your job?

The flexibility. Fulkrum provides excellent flexibility for its people, both internal and external. Even though we are a global business, Fulkrum’s value of its team members is reflected by the managers who always ensure the team is supported to balance their work-home life. 

• What made you choose Fulkrum?

I first noticed Fulkrum when I was working in my previous role, just as they had begun to position themselves in the region. Fulkrum quickly started building quite a reputation in the inspection industry, and I saw this as an excellent opportunity to be a part of, a company leading the industry not only regionally but globally. 

• What is a fun fact about yourself/hobby/talent, or what do you like to do outside of work?

I enjoy being surrounded by positive people. In my free time, I often explore Abu Dhabi with my close friends and family. I believe it’s so important to spend time with your loved ones wherever you can. 

I also love watching cricket. In fact, I used to be a player when I was at university. As I began my career, I had less time to play but more time to watch, which meant I could spend this time with my family and friends instead. 

• What advice would you give young people entering the industry?

Resilience is your friend. You must be adaptive and flexible in an ever-changing industry and bounce back from setbacks. Take lessons from the challenges, and don’t let them defeat you.
