Work Experience
Jack Gordan is a 15 year old student, who
was advised by a BAM employee to visit our
webpage to explore work experience
opportunities for school students. Jack applied
online and was successful in securing one
weeks work experience placement.
Jack started the week in the Exeter office,
where he received his induction training and
was assigned his activities for the week by
Graham Kingdon, Construction Director.
The first two days he spent with Diane
Newman, Design Manager and Josef
Wisniewski, Placement Student looking at
Design Management information. He also
attended his first design team meeting at the
Ladysmith Primary School Site in Exeter and
built up “job enquiry packs” involving structural
and architectural technical drawings. He has
developed understanding of the works
required by spending time with the site
Quantity Surveyors, Planners and Estimators.
The next two days he got to grips with the daily
routine of site working alongside the Site
Manager Mike Tipton. He also shadowed the
site engineer by viewing some surveying work
and attended a subcontractor design meeting
where he assisted Joe Wisniewski in preparing
the meeting minutes.
On his final day he visited the Plymouth
Science Park site, which is a three storey steel
framed building where he worked alongside the
Senior Site Manager, Clive Horsnell and was
introduced to the site operatives gaining an
understanding of their roles and responsibilities
on the project.
Throughout the week Jack has learnt the
importance of P.P.E and the process of issuing
work permits to the subcontractors.
Clive Horsnell, the Senior Site Manager was
impressed that a student of his age was eager
to be involved in the Construction industry,
showing he was thinking about his future path.
Whilst Jack only had a short period with the
site , they have invited him back over the
summer holidays for more work experience.
After Jacks experience he is hoping to continue
his development and experience in the
Construction and Civil Engineering field and we
hope to see him very soon!
Jack is aiming to get more local
experience to aid him with a wide variety
of skills with in the Construction industry.
