• Managing sub-contractor work packages such as under-floor heating on site – ensuring competent persons are working to programme and are adhering to company health & safety regulations.• Proficient use of modern technology such as tablets to keep a record of site documents and construction drawings. This limited the need for paper documents and proved useful when needing to revisit design details.• Working alongside other disciplines at different stages of the project life cycle helped to understand the different roles and responsibilities as defined under CDM regulations.• Using university knowledge couple with engineering experience to propose viable, cost-effective solutions to design team members.• Cross checking design detail drawing discrepancies, comparing them to practical site layouts and confidently raising queries to the design team for clarification.• Understanding the importance of health & safety through an SMSTS course and highlighting this to workers on a daily basis via toolbox talks as well as new arrivals through site inductions.

• Worked effectively with senior engineers on my industrial placement to understand existing constraints on projects and developing sustainable solutions.• Using my own initiative to design substructure and superstructure schemes whilst acknowledging the commercial aspect and the client’s time frame.• Demonstrated problem solving and analytical skills by proposing design solutions to senior colleagues and attending design meetings involving other disciplines.• Mentored younger/less experienced personnel to shape them into future engineers.

• Working alongside the site manager on a project which gave me experience in the forming of a basement.• Tasked to make sure all health & safety documents were up-to-date, send weekly timesheets to head office and successfully placing orders for materials required on site.• Working alongside a structural engineer to build my existing knowledge on excavating, underpinning and sheet piling.• Regularly checking the project programme ensuring works are up-to-date, if not enquiring as to where the delay was. Understanding the lead time on certain materials and ordering them so that they arrive on site when needed – developed time management skills.• Calculating material quantities from drawings such as bricks and blocks while flagging up any variations needed in the costing – improved communication skills.

• Worked with a small team of engineers to learn fundamental engineering principles.• Aided senior engineers with alterations to drawings thus learning basic Auto CAD skills.• In the, I applied basic calculations learnt in my first year of university to help design approximately 150 balconies on Project Light.• Developed an understanding into the importance of BIM on Project Light and the benefits it brings. Successfully updated drawings and re-uploaded for other design team members to comment and check.
