I have always been motivated to work in the construction industry. This interest was sparked when I was around 5 or 6 years old. My father has just returned from work and told me how he does his job; tarmacking. After college is when I confirmed that construction would become my future career path. After I finished college, I acquired my CSCS card and hopped straight into work. I started working at 18 with the knowledge I had gained from my father and was keen to learn more.

I have always had an interest in developing myself and have taken every opportunity, using the trades that I helped within the site I began learning the complexity and the dedication it takes to pursue and work in a busy site and a busy industry.

During my time working, I managed to attend an open day at the University of Essex and looked further into work in construction management. Unfortuantly at the time I had to focus more on work than attending higher education, but it confirmed that construction was the desired industry I wanted to pursue.

As well as having an interest in construction, I have an insight on computing and the affairs of the technology industry. I found this very useful as it had helped me understand the technological side of the industry, allowing me to possibly use my computing knowledge alonside the managerial role i'm actively pursuing.


My long terms goals are to work in the managerial side of the construction industry. I have developed interests outside of construction that will help alongside my course. I have played football for almost 13 years. Football has allowed me to gain discipline for myself and focus as it employs mental as well as physical abilities. From the age of 13 to 19 I have been the captain of my team and using this has made me gain confidence in my leadership.

I know I would make an excellent candidate for this course, as I have always enjoyed construction and worked very hard to achieve the best possible outcome. I have had positive feedback from my peers and bosses and I would like to contribute more to the construction industry.
