Joe Corner
Project Manager Islands
Biography
I joined BAS as an electrician within the Estates team in September 2007, spending 4 winters south, one at Halley V in 2008, Bird Island in 2010 and two at KEP. I also spent a summer as the Signy base technician.
In June 2014 I was appointed as Project Manager for the new BAS Aurora Innovation Centre which was completed in January 2017.
After completion of the Aurora Centre I was appointed as the Project Manager for the Islands redevelopment projects which run in conjunction with the construction of the new polar research vessel the RRS Sir David Attenborough. The islands project consist of a new storage and workshop facility at Bird Island and an enhanced wharf and Bio-Security building at King Edward Point.
