Abdus Shakur

I am a successful businessman, starting my community-oriented working life as a youth in the 70s; since, I have been a legal advisor on immigration and nationality/housing, a BBC producer, a secondary school teacher, Deputy Director of Human Resources in the NHS, as well as many other professions. Some of my most successful projects include the Canary Wharf Millenium Quarter, the Brick Lane Regeneration, and the Tower Hamlets Thousand Homes Programme. I was Chair of Planning and Development, Housing, Finance and Deputy Leader. I am keen on developing and executing a sound strategy. My high social and moral values have allowed me to grow into a visionary who loves to deliver.
