PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
July 2015 – Present
SITE AGENT/ENGINEER
DANAHER AND WALSH (CIVIL ENGINEERING) LTD
My responsibilities at Danaher and Walsh lie in the realms of project delivery on site, with more of a management than an engineering focus. I am responsible for the management of direct and subcontract labour, materials and plant, organisation and planning of works, interface with clients, statutory undertakers, stakeholders etc., the management of health and safety risk, programme and financial reporting and the everyday running of site. Our works are predominantly in the realms Of Section 278 and general civil engineering.

SITE AGENT/ENGINEER
NEWLINE CIVIL ENGINEERING
Working on a variety of civil engineering projects I was responsible for both the project management and engineering activities on site at all levels, from procurement of materials, monthly financial reporting, day to day management of contractors and health and safety to being responsible for all setting out and engineering activities. I was site based and operated a hands-on approach where possible; getting directly involved in day to day activities – allowing me to monitor progress, quality and safety at a far greater level than can be achieved from a long-armed approach, and allowing me to learn details about construction processes which can be improved from the bottom up.
