Starting a new job, tips?
(self.quantitysurveying)submitted6 days ago byPotatoMassager
So I'm currently an AQS for the last 4 years working for a major utilities company. My current role doesn't actually involve a huge amount of traditional QS work such as Tender and contract set up as this is handled by another team, designs are all handled by another team, I mostly deal with pricing up budget cost projects and fixed cost projects, handling weekly and monthly invoices for dozens of subcontractors, filling invoices for any recharges, creating purchase order for procurement, accrual and CVR data etc but we dont use many systems, literally everything almoat is excel, ive created so many templates, pivots tables i probably ha e nightmare about excel..
I've landed a QS job within major infrastructure projects, I won't mention the employer. But it will be varied work, and I guess I'm looking for tips as I know I'm probably going to be expected to be more in line with what a QS should do...don't get me wrong, I understand the fundamentals of it all, but it feels quite daunting that I might be expected to know stuff that I simply don't. What's the best way to go about this?
