CAD Technician

Sep 2002 - Dec 2005
Worked closely with the firms planning engineers who were based in the Strategic Projects division, to produce computer-aided visuals. These visuals reflected key milestones of the proposed construction project, based on what was detailed in a projects gantt chart programme. The visuals would form part of the divisions tender proposals, which would ultimately be used by the divisions bid managers. As a visual aid, they provided the bid managers with another tool in which to communicate to the client how the construction project would progress over the defined schedule. Show less
