RE: APPLICATION FOR CAREER OPPORTUNITY AS AN ASSISTANT SITE MANAGER I write to seek a job opportunity with your company. As competitive individual in the construction industry, I studied Diploma & Degree in Construction management at the Technical university of Kenya & took some short term courses in CAD applications, Ms project & customer service and transcription. With some experience at The East African University Library project as a clerk of works gave me more exposure in the industry in regards to project drawings production on ground, onsite supervision with quality checks, requisition of materials and follow-ups with suppliers, ensuring safety onsite and reporting to the project manager work progress and any concerns which might affect the project negatively in terms of project time and cost hence teamwork lead to a successful project coordination and completion of various elements in time.
More so, at Inexpa building systems as Site officer and Kenya forest Services as a Site supervisor I managed to meet construction deadlines on time with quality of work through Team work, coordination and execution of works. In my position as Laboratory technician (building materials) on the Nairobi- Mombasa SRG project gave me the exposure in quality control, material tests and some supervision on civil works achieving good sub-bases for the railway meeting set specifications & requirements.
For more information, attached below is my curriculum vitae, hence joining your team will be a tremendous opportunity and honor.
Yours faithfully,
Samson. M. Mgenyi.
