Marek Names Director of Talent Development
Sabra Phillips has joined The Marek Companies headquartered in Houston, Texas as the Director of Talent Development. Phillips will lead Marek’s talent and workforce development program focused on enhancing the skills and careers of people at all levels of the Marek team across the award-winning subcontractor’s offices in Houston, Dallas-Ft. Worth, San Antonio, Austin and Atlanta.
Opening the Invisible Door [VIDEO]
A few weeks ago, Saied Alavi, Director of Operations at Marek Brothers Houston, and I visited an active construction site on the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston (UTMB) campus. The new Jennie Sealy Hospital is scheduled to be completed later this year and open for patients early next year. We went there to talk with Gloria Palau, one of Marek’s workforce trainees, to learn about her experience with Marek since she entered her new career about a year ago. Frank Villarreal, Safety Advisor for the project, met us at the check-in trailer, and walked us onto the site to the floor where Gloria was working that day.
In Opportunity.
