Congratulations on Retirement, Donald Sheehan

IBEW Local 103 would like to congratulate Business Agent Donald Sheehan on his upcoming retirement in June, closing out years of dedicated service and a decadeslong, storied career.

A reliable and devoted union brother for 46 years, Donald began his journey with IBEW Local 103 as an apprentice in 1974, working on key projects like the Hyatt Hotel in Cambridge, the Prudential Center, The Boston Globe, and New England Telephone. In 1985, he began a successful, 15-year career with electrical contractor J&M Brown Company, Inc., where he worked as a steward, foreman, and general foreman.

Donald rose through the ranks at Local 103 to win his first seat on the Executive Board in 1990. Later, in 2000, he was appointed Business Agent by former IBEW Local 103 Business Manager Rich Gambino, skillfully negotiating contracts with The Boston Globe, Boston Herald, and TD Garden, as well as PLAs with Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard University. Donald also served as a Greater Boston Labor Council Executive Board member, and President of the Harvard Trade Labor Program Alumni Association.
