As an apprentice quantity surveyor, I deal with managing the money coming in and out of the site. I have been given some of the subcontractors to manage on a weekly basis I also have to do the payments each month for these subcontractors. I have to go out on-site to check that the applications that they have given are accurate to the work performed on-site.
I have learnt a lot during my apprenticeship so far. for example, I have learnt how to correctly do a measure for a quote. I have also started learning how to manage a package and the different aspects of going out to tender and the procurement process. In addition, I have learnt the different contract and law requirements during my job role.
I am currently enjoying my apprenticeship at L&Q the team that I am with on-site is very helpful and have been great at helping me with any issues that I have. the company has been helpful and supportive during my apprenticeship so far. the apprenticeship has exceeded my expectations so far because I didn't expect to have the responsibility that I have so early and I find that good as this means I have been trusted quickly.
The structure of the apprenticeship from the side of the L&Q head office side is quite poor as they have no plan of where they want me to go. However, my line manager has been great at sorting this out and moved me around different sites to gain the experience that I need.

the application process is too over complicated in my opinion is the university requires a lot of information and a lot of question just to enrol.a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a
