I am a experienced Roofing Estimator with over 20 years working in the roofing industry in Kent. I am skilled in cost estimation, product sourcing and procurement of roofing materials and have excellent time management including face to face meetings and over the phone conversations with existing and potential new customers. I have successfully organised work loads and a work force of fifteen operatives to co-inside roof tile lead times. In the last twenty years I have gained professional knowledge in all aspects of roofing with particular strengths in meeting deadlines, ensuring projects are run smoothly and within the budget alongside a high quality of customer service. I have knowledge of resolving customer problems and solving problems on different levels as they arise.
Despite my years of experience I am not complacent so I would be adaptable to new approaches which arrive within the roofing sector. I am adept in reading and analysing drawings including roof specifications and any scope of work individual to each tender.
If I was successful in the role, I would be driven to deliver high-quality service and consistent results. As my last company carried out a large number of contracts in the Kent area I am very knowledgeable of the wide range of roofing products and accessorise from manufactures for both pitched and flat roof aspects. I would work hard to increase success through effective work strategies and continue the high reputation of the company. Additionally I would strive to maintain my excellent contacts with building contractors and roofing suppliers in the Kent area in order to assist with the role. I work effectively on my own but equally as part of a team.
My colleagues and previous clients would agree that I offer excellent communication and good judgment to effectively meet team needs. I am a multi tasker and thrive in fast-paced environments, whilst remaining optimistic when things become challenging.
In the last two decades in the roofing industry I feel I have become equipped with the knowledge, skills and expertise that would enable me to successfully take on a new and excitable challenge that your company is offering.
I am a married father of two teenage daughters who enjoys various sporting activities which I have excelled at throughout my life so far. I was a keen footballer in my youth and a highly talented cricketer who represented Kent from under 11 through to under 23 level and Kent board teams which competed in the 2001 and 2002 Chelthenham and Gloucester Cup.
With my local cricket club we played at the highest level in Kent for a number of years and also played a number of years for the club at Indoor cricket which we won, not only a number of league, county and regional finals but also becoming the 2011 National Indoor Cricket champions. Since I stopped cricket I am now keen golfer and gym enthusiast. I feel that playing competitive team and individual sports has help me in my working career.
Also in my spare time I support both my daughters who compete nationally at Artistic Roller dance and going out for either long cycle rides or short distance runs. I also love to cook in my spare time for my family and friends.
