May I take this opportunity in introducing our company.
We are an independent estimating, surveying & supervising company offering over 40 years experience in our field, at a very competitive cost to your company. In these days of recession and competitive pricing followed closely by expensive labour supervisory costs, we believe the only way forward for companies to stay competitive is to find ways to reduce their overheads. To stay ahead of their competitors by utilising freelance companies for their non construction works.
If you are an established large construction company with staff shortages and overwhelming enquiries or an up and coming young company trying to expand, lack of experience or overhead costs then we are the answer to your needs.
Take away the concerns of missed opportunities and contact us now

Then after a short period I changed direction and gained experiences in the ship building industry C D Homes ship yard, then the construction industry initially with Fluor International at the Salt end oil refinery, Foster Wheeler at the Linsey oil refinery, Mathew Hall at Bristol and Capper Pass smelting works near Hull.
My first experience of working overseas came when I was then asked by my former employer Fluor to work in Saudi Arabia as piping superintendant.
Further experience now moved me into management positions with duties of contract negotiations, tender bids, material purchase, labour control, risk assessments, method statements, variation accounts and final accounts.
Overseas again as project manager at Eurodisney (fantasyland)
Country France, Client American, Management British, Company Italian, Work force multi-national over 250. After contract completion requested by the client Disney to remain with a crew to commission, punch list and alter as required up to completion and hand over.
With experiences now established in field installations, office management and the commercial side. I have held posts in all these disciplines. Field engineer, M&E quantity surveyor, and Cost engineer.

6/Acknowleged by professional institutes with their highest category status.
To back up my years of experience I have been in positions of responsibility for direct and sub contractors HSE and now hold a current Health and Safety card.
