Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

5/5
My role is to learn and assist in how to run a construction site safely, efficiently and to the Building Regulations, working with experienced managers for their advice and knowledge on construction management. On a day-to-day basis i will monitor subcontractors and trades to ensure work is on schedule and to a good standard, co-ordinate deliveries such as materials needed on site. Ensuring health and safety is being followed this includes PPE being worn, RAMS in place, toolbox talks and site inductions.

Everything I do with my training provider, I can relate to the work I have been doing on-site which then helps me use what i have been taught in the classroom in real world situations
