1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

Everyday is different in construction. Within my role I am either on site helping with monthly valuations or completing a Cost Report. On other days I can be helping a wider team complete a Cost Plan or Order of Cost Estimate. The week also consists of many meetings of which I shadow and develop my learning

Many! Causeway, BIM, Cost Reporting, Cost Planning, Cost Estimating, working within a team under time pressured environments and many more. The programme gives you the chance to excel and develop not only at work but also gives you a chance to achieve some personal goals too (eg networking more)
