Site Engineer Review

I start by going to a site briefing that lets us know what's happening on site that day and any hazards. I then go to site to see what work was done overnight and let everyone know what works are happening that day. I then make sure i get all the correct paperwork to give them for the next day and go back to site to see what works have been done that day.

Yes Ive done first aid training, IFE training and have opportunities to learn how to correctly survey a site. I have learnt what different paperwork is such as TBS (Task briefing sheet) and WPP (Works package plan). And most importantly, I have learnt the process of redeveloping an entire station.

I enjoy it very much. There's some bad days where things are slow however I have a great team behind me who always lift me up. I have learnt so much and learn something new everyday. I also now have so much experience of working on a construction site. I couldn't ask for a better programme.

At the start of the programme things were quite unclear, when i was starting and where to go, and the job role. However after everything was confirmed all the information became very clear and they made an effort to verbally explain where to go and how my day would start and end. So now i can confirm it is well organised.

My employer is very supportive always helps me when i need it and they are always pushing me to the best that I can. If i have a question they are happy to answer it without judgement and will always talk me through things step by step if I don't understand.

Again I receive a lot of support. If i need help with any of my work they are happy to help and support me. Also if I need time off (reasonably) to do uni work or anything like that they are happy to compromise so I can get it done.

I dont think that at this stage my qualification is very helpful. I haven't had to use any knowledge that i have learnt at uni in my day to day job. Anything i have learnt at uni that ive used on site i had previously already learnt at work e.g. Slump test.

Yes. We do team bonding sessions (teams breakfast), womans bonding session (afternoon tea), personal training (insight test), activitys to help us (self defense classes and survey training), the boy go to play football every month (they do invite the girls too) and on fridays we go out together after work hours.

Yes

They offer amazing experiances and give you any training you may or may not need. I do anything from printing paperwork to scanning an area to make sure there are no hazards. They are flexible and understanding and will always put your needs first. The team i have are amazing and the company offers so much support.

Dont be afraid to ask questions or go out to find the answers on your own and dont be afraid to make mistakes. Try not to feel intimidated we all start from the bottom and make our way up even if someone is above you they were in your shoes before
