Fraser’s full-time placement

This week we’re delighted to announce that Fraser, our trainee Quantity Surveyor, goes full time as part of a 6-month university placement during his 3rd year of his BSc (Hons) Quantity Surveying course at Glasgow Caledonian University.

We recently caught up with Fraser to see how he has been getting on so far:

What are you most excited about being part of the Quantum team?

Going full-time with Quantum Solutions, I am most excited about expanding my level of involvement within projects.

This includes completing a wider range of tasks from start to finish, participating in various meetings with clients/contractors and attending site visits more often within different projects.

Can you describe a typical day during placement?

A typical day during placement can be very varied. Tasks include completing payment notices for contractors & sub-contractors and handling take-off and measurement tasks both digitally and manually.

Communication with clients and contractors through emails and phone calls is a regular part of the day.

Additionally, there are often meetings with the team, clients, and contractors, as well as site visits. Assisting with collating tender and contract documents is also a key responsibility.

We’re all looking forward to continuing to work with Fraser over the next six months and can’t wait to see him learn and grow in his role!
