Project Coordinator

Jul 2017 - Dec 2021
I was the first Project Coordinator (PC) in 40 years of the company being around. I was instrumental in creating the PC role. The support role was to liaise with the Engineers, working with the CAD technicians and creating the BIM naming of drawings before issuing to contractors. Being a point of contact for Architects and other consultants wanting to liaise with our engineers. I also helped the Marketing team with Bids and submissions to acquire new projects. Was very proud to have been part of the recruiting process to employ other project coordinators for our office and other offices. The relationship with Partners and Enginners was just fantastic. I also enjoyed giving inductions to new starters and helping them settle in.
