Apprentice Quantity Surveyor
What expertise and background do you bring to the table?
I am taking my first steps into the world of Quantity surveying with an apprenticeship with Circle. With my background mainly being academic, I have been on work experience with McLaren and ISG where I was on site getting a basic understanding of the distinct roles and responsibilities. I will be working towards a degree as part of the apprenticeship scheme and am set to graduate in 2028. Following that, I will be working towards my APC in 2029.
Can you outline the responsibilities of your role?
As a trainee Apprenticeship Quantity Surveyor my role consists of both pre- and post-commercial work, gaining an understanding of the software, and familiarising myself with cost exercises, measurement tasks and site visits. With this I can then aid the Quantity Surveying team in key projects to further my understanding of the company and role. When enrolling into university in September I will be dedicating one day per week to attend during term time. This unique opportunity provides me with in-depth knowledge through key projects.
Describe your experiences and growth at Circle?
I am excited for the opportunity and ready to get stuck in. I am looking forward to the future with enrolling into university in September and with the early start I can progress my skills which will give me knowledge to bring to the degree.
What brings you joy outside of work?
I am a big football fan, by going to attend games when possible to playing every week in a 5 a side team, gaining valuable skills like communication and team work to use during the week. I like to keep a fit and healthy lifestyle by going to the gym and doing a regular 5k run on the weekends. Another interest of mine is travelling with my latest visit being to Barcelona, where I got to see the amazing La Sagrada Familia and Parc Guell.
