John Tattersall

I am a problem solving driven A-level student with a strong interest in the construction industry. I am highly eager to apply my academic knowledge and hands-on experience to an apprenticeship at KIER Group, specifically in the Quantity Surveying area. My problem solving, leadership, attention to detail and ability to work under pressure would be a fantastic addition to the already strong workforce at KIER. I thrive in collaborating in diverse teams and I am committed to delivering focused cost estimation and monitoring budgets.
