      Nov 2010 - Aug 2011
      Quantity Surveyor

      JCP has completed a wide variety of projects for Educational Institutions, Government Departments, Health Authorities and Local Authority Services, as well as Commercial and Industrial clients.

These skills are not only technical and computer orientated but I have also developed personal skills and qualities too, mainly around communication. My ability to take off and measure from drawing was greatly improved due to the wide variety of projects I was involved in.I had the opportunity to see and be involved with construction projects at every stage from design to final account and have been building on this knowledge ever since.

    • MWH, now part of Stantec

      Jun 2014 - Feb 2015
      Quantity Surveyor

      As a Quantity Surveyor with Cuesko the first project was to work along side MWH Recovery staff to support it's insurance partners Vero and AA Insurance in repairing and rebuilding commercial properties damaged during the Canterbury earthquake sequences.Working exclusively on Commercial projects and with numerous repair methodologies allowed me to gain an intimate understanding of commercial construction practices in Christchurch and how it has developed over the decades. Learning and understanding the varying and sometimes very unique repair methodologies has transferred into my own skill set to better understand engineers approaches to current projects such as the re-purposing of commercial buildings. That better understanding has proved a significant advantage when developing those early high level cost plans. Show less

      Cuesko was formed in 2013 by three former Senior Executives of an International Quantity Surveying Consultancy operating nationally throughout New Zealand.

    • Citycare Group

      Apr 2016 - Jan 2017
      Project Quantity Surveyor

      Seconded to City Care from Cuesko initially my role in the Civil and Infrastructure estimating team involved completing commercial review of all tender documentation and the development of risk registers. Very soon, however, I came involved as project QS in a very interesting multi-million dollar roading project. This role required in-depth involvement to completion. I was responsible for the pricing of all variations, interim payment claims, negotiations with the client and generating the final account. I also managed some procurement and contract admin duties. My involvement in this project allowed me to develop a new set of skills relating to civil construction. This particular project involved many levels of works and thus has given me a level of experience that can be applied to numerous other infrastructure projects. Show less
