Project Management Construction

Stephen Cooney

I am shortly to graduate with a BSc in Construction Project Management from the

Institute of technology Sligo. Over the course of my studies I have developed an ability

to manage the construction process and to meet the needs of clients wit hin legal,

financial and environmental constraints. I have also gained management skills to plan,

organise and control construction projects. As you will see below, I am a highly

motivated self-starter and have worked successfully both as part of a team and on my

own initiative on numerous projects. I have very good interpersonal skills, and relish

working in a challenging environment. I believe that I could make a significant

contribution to your company and look forward to discussing my application with you

at an interview.
