Project Management requires good organisation skills and the ability to prioritise tasks according to their requirements.

Since it will be challenging to remember the things we did over the previous days or months, so keeping a record of site activities is a good habit to get into.

As it is nearing the end of the month, I am sitting with my manager to go over the monthly expenses for all Waka Kotahi disposal jobs in the Waikato and Bay of Plenty regions and establish budgets for the following month. This is an exciting job to do as it allows me to get an overview of all the current projects and understand the financial side of the work that I do.

My role is to clearly define any design clarifications to the crew as well as ensure that the correct steel sections with the correct lengths/dimensions are installed at the appropriate locations.

I love getting out on site as much as possible and it’s also really good for me to keep up with learning about the practical side of construction in addition to the technical side.

All my meetings are done for the day, so it’s time for me to head out for the afternoon to do a quick site visit for a project. I have been asked to take some photos of my colleague who works in the Palmerston office.

This afternoon, I have an awesome opportunity to join some of my team members in visiting one of our project sites and meeting some of the great people in the field.
