A step into the commercial construction space. Planning and executing high-end commercial fit-out projects in accordance with time, cost and quality objectives. Resourced onto a variety of projects from tender to live jobs, generally working under a Project Manager or Senior Project Manager coordinating efforts of team members, subcontractors and consultants. Delivering projects in accordance with specific contract conditions and within the defined criteria of the organisation’s policies, processes, procedures and plans with high standards of performance, commitment and communication.After a few months at Chroma I decided to look for something different and parted ways on good terms. Grateful for the opportunity and experience gained, I hold very high recommendation for anyone considering Chroma Group. They are a collection of truly brilliant professionals with a supportive and positive workplace and management approach.
