Trainee Estimator

Jun 2013 - Jan 2014
My main role was in assisting senior estimators by taking off quantities from tender documents, compiling comprehensive bills of quantities and sending out packages for pricing. I also assisted in the tender submissions by constructing 3D models of the projects; these models were used to aid and develop the works methodology.During my time in this position I was able to work on a wide variety of projects from small infrastructure schemes in Northern Ireland to large marine engineering projects in some of the biggest ports in the UK. Working on such a wide range of projects has helped me gain a better understanding of the civil engineering process; from procurement to developing method, pricing and negotiation. Show less
