What’s it like to be a cadet?
Basically you work through the four different sectors of contract administration, estimating, project engineering and general administration on the site. There’s a bit of involvement with everything – I’ve assisted the engineers in various aspects. We have a team approach. They’re very encouraging and assist with working through problems. The program is quite structured so we do have goals to work towards as well.
What’s different about Laing O’Rourke?
I have found LOR has a different approach to their projects. They’re about changing the current environment of contracting – basically making it easier for the client, for all parties: less litigious and more about getting the job done and satisfying all parties.
Do you have any ambitions to travel?
Yes I do have ambitions to work and travel within the LOR Group. It’s a matter of speaking with Human Resources and them assessing suitability and availability of positions vacant in the destinations you were after.
