WORK EXPERIENCE

Interserve Projects, Southampton (Placement)                                                          Dates: Jun 2001 – Sep 2002

Site Quantity Surveyor

·         Interserve Projects were previously called Tilbury Douglas who concentrated on construction whereas now they specialise in all areas of projects, from construction to facilities management.

·         I started this job by helping other QS’s prepare tender packages for Southampton schools PFI project, measure some of the smaller packages i.e. landscaping and also made payments to sub-contractors for previous projects (including releasing retention).  I did this for about 3 months at the head office in Birmingham

·         The rest of the 12 months I worked on site in Southampton.  I started off by looking after the groundworks package, I had to re-measure the works, check against the valuations, keep records on any variations and pay the sub-contractor monthly.

·         Once the groundworks package was near completion I was given the responsibility of the steelwork, brickwork, windows and cedar cladding package.  The same work had to be done on each of these packages.  Due to my accuracy in records and re-measurement, I saved the company almost £75,000 as the valuations were over measured.

·         My experience from this placement was very worthwhile and taught me the importance of keeping accurate records, working to a deadline and the importance of communication and further improved my team working skills.

• During my short time at GTRM I realised the importance of accurate estimating along with communicating affectively in order to successfully carry out duties.

INTERESTS AND ACTIVITIES

From 1997-1999 I was Treasurer for the Sandwell Youth Forum in Tividale.  My peers elected me for this position and it involved raising money for local charities and organising events for local teenagers.  My main achievement from this position was being involved in the creation of a medium in which the views of teenagers could be voiced.  More recently at the forum, I have been involved with a youth radio project and helping young children improve their Maths and English grammar skills in my spare time.

I enjoy a variety of sports to help me keep fit physically.  My main sporting interest is football, as I enjoy working as a team. Playing football makes me understand the importance of the ability to work as a team in different environments and situations.  I also dedicate my spare time to kickboxing which keeps me both physically and mentally fit.  My other pass times include socialising with friends and listening to music.  I am fluent in English and Punjabi and have a basic understanding of Hindi and Urdu.
