Takes on construction work as an independent business - quoting, labour, materials, sequencing and getting paid. Site experience matters far more here than the qualification, and so does managing cash.
Alternative route
Site Supervisor
Runs the working face of a construction site day to day - labour, materials, sequence, measurements and safety. Reached from a civil draughtsman or polytechnic route with a few years on site.
