Summary

I believe that I am suitable for the job as I have good communication skills which help me when it comes to working with a team, my past work experience has helped me with gaining knowledge about the industry. My work experience allowed me to understand the roles that a quantity surveyor has to complete including cost analysis, procurement, budgeting and working with clients. My university modules so far have also helped me with different aspects of quantity surveying with things like law in the built environment and also using different technology such as Revit , Microsoft project and excel, auto cad. I have worked in very different environments that has helped me to adapt to the role that I am given.
