KEY PROJECTS
- Resettlement Project at Afrisipa | Senior Land Surveyor, 18 months.
I oversaw all geomatic surveys for a 21-hectare resettlement scheme as part of the Newmont Ahafo North project. I was tasked with providing the topographic data necessary for the design and construction of over 150 new homes, internal road networks, and a 1km access road.
- Diversion of Krofon Road | Survey Engineer & Geomatic Services, 3 Months.
Provided full geomatic support for the construction of a 7 km road diversion, undertaking all control, topographic, and setting-out surveys to ensure the project was delivered on time and to specification.
- Construction of Kwadaso Sub Metro Inner City Roads | Assistant Surveyor, 4 months.
The team conducted all earthwork surveys for the construction of 7.3 km of inner-city roads across Abuakwa, Asuoyeboah, and Nyankyerenase–Apre, ensuring that cut-and-fill operations met the design grades.
- Mapping Built-up Areas in Obuasi Municipal | Team Leader, 2 Months.
Lead a study using Landsat 7 and Landsat 8 satellite imagery to map and analyse urbanisation rates over a 17-year period (2003–2020). The analysis provided key insights for municipal planning and development control, including recommendations for infrastructure improvements and strategies to manage urban sprawl effectively.
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT (SIMULATIONS)
- CBRE Project Management Job Simulation | Forage October 2025.
Completed a commercial project management simulation, conducting an initial review of a high-end showroom project plan and developing a detailed Gantt chart to track progress, identify dependencies, and assess project risks.
- Siemens Mobility Commercial Project Management | Forage October 2025
Undertook a simulation as Commercial Project Manager for a £100M+ light rail extension. Analysed project performance using Work Breakdown Structures (WBS) and KPIs to pinpoint risks and opportunities.
