What I'm looking for

I seek a role in Quantity Surveying, Site Management, or Project Engineering where I can apply cost control, site coordination, and finishing supervision skills within a safety-focused, growth-oriented construction team.

I am a disciplined construction professional with over four years of combined experience in quantity surveying, site engineering, and finishing supervision across residential and commercial projects. I take ownership of responsibilities and deliver high-quality work under pressure.

I have a track record of cost control through material verification, BOQ preparation, subcontractor negotiation, and vigilant site documentation. My achievements include supervising finishing works for multi-unit projects, preventing material wastage, and negotiating cost savings without compromising quality.

I am skilled in site coordination, quality assurance, and reporting, and I am actively expanding my software proficiency (Planswift, Microsoft Project) while seeking opportunities in Quantity Surveying, Site Management, or Project Engineering within New Zealand's construction sector.
