Intern Quantity Surveyor @ Cogent Properties Limited

About

I'm a Quantity Surveying student at Obafemi Awolowo University with a strong interest in construction cost management, measurement, and project delivery. I have hands-on site experience from my internship and I'm developing practical competence in cost estimation, BOQ preparation, and construction measurement. I am skilled in taking-off quantities from drawings using PlanSwift and have working proficiency in Microsoft Excel for cost analysis. Open to internship, graduate trainee, site-based, or remote support roles, particularly in quantity take-off, BOQ preparation, and cost analysis. I am detail-oriented, disciplined, and committed to continuous learning and professional growth in the construction and built environment sector.
