I am a self-motivated and results-driven professional with a strong background in building surveying, property inspections, and project management. I bring hands-on experience in both residential and commercial sectors, with expertise in disrepair works, damp and mould assessments, contractor management, and compliance. I'm now seeking a role as a Building Surveyor where I can contribute to a forward-thinking organisation and continue to grow professionally.
