Armiger Timber Frame’s Post

In my last post I have been asked what can we do to know your workforce or workers and how we can motivate them to with our engagement. Everyone might have observed or seen whenever your senior management visiting to your construction site what they will do , meet all the employees, interact with them ask about your name what is role & responsibility, how is your family etc. also interacting to one or two workmen’s. Afterwards you become highly motivated, filled with full energy. Same thing required our workman also with extra engagement. Let’s talk about workman engagement lavel : 1) construction managers : he should meet their workman on daily basis if it is premises job, and in case of remote & multiple job locations at least within a week and he should know the name of foreman/technician or further down level as work demands. 2) Section incharge or area incharge: he should have daily interaction to his workman’s , with morning tool box talk and he should have reach to all the workmen at least by their name. 3) Site engineer/ Field supervisor: he should have continuous interaction and to know his workman not by name only more than that , like whre they live , how many children they have , how well they are. If such level of engagement your team have I am sure you will have good productivity with zero harm, high quality product in lesser cost.

🚀 Career Progression for M&E Managers 🛠️ Throughout my career in recruitment, specifically working with M&E Managers (at all levels), I have found that some people at the early stages of this path, or Electricians, Pipefitters, Plumbers etc, don't always have a clear idea on the path they have in front of them. Every company has a different structure, which is heavily dependant on, the size of the business as well as the size and type of projects, but as a rough idea, please see below a brief snapshot of the Managerial career path available to you. 𝟏. 𝐌𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 / 𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐫: Often, the first step of coming off the tools is a step into Supervising either Mechanical or Electrical packages for a sub contractor. This role will usually involve managing a number of trade operatives, and carrying out quality assurance using systems such as SnagR and Fieldview. 𝟐. 𝐌𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 / 𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫: With experience, you could step up to a management level which will have a more overall view of the installation. Along with overseeing supervisors and checking the QA, you will be involved with more paperwork such as managing the programme, Tech Subs, RFI's and, dependant on the size of the company/project, you will be creating progress reports for the client. 𝟑. 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭: Again, this is usually dependant on the size of the business but in general you would move into an either Mechanical OR Electrical Project Manager role, still reporting into a Senior PM or Project Director on site but you will have complete control of the Mechanical/Electrical packages. More involved with the client and building that relationship, you will start to be commercially aware, involved in some procurement with the supply chain and making sure the project is running to budget. 𝟒. 𝐒𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐌 / 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐃𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫: You will now be in total control of this project (and maybe 1 other). You will be responsible for everything here, utilising your PM's and Managers for the day to day running of the project whilst you take a more overall view of things, making sure you are on time according to the programme, on budget and are in constant contact with the client representatives. At this level you could also be involved with winning future phases/projects with this client. 𝟓. 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫/𝐃𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫: At this level you will be more office based having a heavy influence on the day to day running of the business. You should be involved in everything here, from winning work, keeping tabs on the current packages, the hiring processes, coming up with ways to push the business forward. If you are looking for opportunities, give me a call/email. I find it is always good to learn about you and your aspirations first and then we can speak about suitable businesses and roles that fit. 07728551660 sam.warren@streamline-recruitment.com

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝘀 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆 𝗗𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝘁 𝗔𝘀𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁? 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗮 𝘁𝘆𝗽𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂? I will hit the ground running at full speed. Needing to take grasp of current claims, projects, and meeting the entirety of the team and beginning relationships with them. A typical day will start early, ensuring availability when current projects begin. Creating schedules and plans to review with the CEO, to ensure I have a proper office to field balance. Collaborating with all departments of the business, and networking with our client’s safety teams. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗮 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆 𝗗𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿? As I step into the role of safety director at Ascendent, I will be responsible for creating safety policies, identifying hazards, training employees, investigating accidents and incidents, making sure rules are followed, encouraging safety through various techniques, planning for emergencies, and working with others throughout the organization to ensure health and safety principles are always improving. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻/𝗗𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻/𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆? I started construction at a young age as a laborer for a small excavation company. This was followed by moving into small commercial demolition. In June of 2010, I joined Envirocon, and was initially dispatched to a dam demolition and dredging project. This gave me experience in industrial demolition and HAZWOPER work. From there, I moved up the ranks, becoming an equipment operator, followed by crew lead and foremen, and eventually a site supervisor. I joined Envirocon’s health and safety team in 2016, and since then have worked with a few other demolition contractors in both the industrial and commercial demolition and abatement world. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗮 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻 𝗝𝗼𝗯 𝗦𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆? I chose a career in safety because of a very serious near-miss I was involved in during my career - an event that could have been prevented. I told myself I wanted to ensure nothing like this could ever happen to others as long as I had something to do about it. 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘺 𝘵𝘶𝘯𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘗𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘛𝘸𝘰!
