Quantity Surveyor - Bakubung Platinum Mine @ Wesizwe Platinum Ltd.
About
I am a Chartered and Professional Quantity Surveyor (MRICS, PrQS) with extensive experience delivering complex mining, construction, and civil infrastructure projects across South Africa. Over the past several years, I’ve built a solid foundation in cost management, contract administration, procurement strategy, and risk mitigation, supporting projects from feasibility through to completion. My professional focus has evolved toward strategic commercial leadership, where I combine technical precision with business insight to optimize project profitability, manage contractual risk, and ensure value-driven delivery. I have successfully led cost control, tender adjudication, and stakeholder coordination across projects exceeding R300 million, contributing to financial efficiency and governance. Currently pursuing my MBA at Wits Business School (2025–2027), I am enhancing my capabilities in strategic finance, leadership, and commercial decision-making — building on my technical foundation to add greater business and operational value across the project lifecycle. I’m passionate about driving financial efficiency, improving cost visibility, and fostering collaboration between project teams, clients, and contractors to achieve sustainable, value-driven outcomes.
