Quantity Surveyor at Sacred Geometry NZ who prepared takeoffs, BOQs, and cost estimates for residential projects.
What I'm looking for
At Sacred Geometry NZ, I prepared quantity takeoffs, BOQs, and cost estimates for residential subdivision, renovation, and new-build projects. I estimated civil, earthworks, foundation, structural, and fitout scopes using PlanSwift, Bluebeam Revu, and Excel.
I checked civil subcontractor quotes against our own estimates to identify scope gaps and price differences, and tracked budgets, variations, and progress claims to support cost control. I also prepared documents for building consent and CCC applications.
At HG Silos, Inc., I supervised silo foundation construction and erection, including site activities and structural alignment. I coordinated design, procurement, and construction teams while monitoring timelines, budgets, and progress.
Earlier, I supervised telecommunication tower construction at SMS Global Technologies, Inc. and prepared estimates, budgets, and contract documents at MVG Construction Services. I’m a licensed civil engineer and am seeking a full-time remote Quantity Surveyor or Cost Estimator role.
