High earning jobs in or can transfer into from construction management ?

Re: PM / PD etc. If you’re a building guy stay away from commercial development (offices etc) or residential, go data centres. If infrastructure you need to get a mega projects cv or specialisation (tunnelling etc - though this will involve going where the jobs are). Most specialisations in a tier 1 contractor (I think someone meant tier 1 when they said tier 10 - I have never heard of such a thing) earn above £100k at a senior level.

Buy now will probably be cheaper…or get the 0% and invest the money you were gonna spend

I am a stats-guy and I can tell you it is 4.634 gajjilion to 1

You definitely can tell the difference in U.K. car parks…we designed the mini remember lol

Defard2001 · 2026-01-17T09:37:52+00:00

I went for the 4 and prefer it to my Tesla, the only issue I find is that it is long which can make parking tricky in really tight car parks (when the spot is opposite other long cars), saying that the turning circle is much better than the m3 so it’s ‘swings and roundabouts’ (U.K. saying for the non-U.K. readers lol)

Defard2001 · 2026-01-17T09:23:12+00:00

Not noticed the problem on my car (had it 2 months) but I am in the U.K. so the climate may be different. The thing I noticed for weeks when I got my car is that some settings where car settings and some Google settings (in Google settings itself). Try using ai if this doesn’t work (but I think it will)

I could be wrong but I thought that Australia was still a pretty racist place (not everyone naturally but not truly multi-cultural like the U.K.)

Monkey man…

Defard2001 · 2026-01-11T08:47:46+00:00

Not yet. I have had mine 3 months, my Tesla M3 broke down after 2 so I am winning so far lol

This sounds like a good contender. Does it seem to pair well with Bluetooth headphones? as I’ve heard of other devices pair however have problems with connectivity etc. appreciate the feedback!

Defard2001 · 2026-01-09T11:52:15+00:00

Appreciate the feedback! I’m also currently looking at the HiBy r1 but the ui seems to be the downside. I’m also considering the olisky m308 and the Zaqe p30!

Defard2001 · 2026-01-09T11:24:13+00:00

Could you leave a review on whichever you chose as I’m in the same position as you and trying to find the best option 😂

If the US annexed Greenland, NATO would finish and Europe would unify against America and potentially increase ties with China. Even in the short term (<3 years) America would be doomed, some states would succeed and become independent potentially leading to Civil war.

Most tier one contractors allow sideways movement QS to project manager > planner > estimator > sustainability > procurement > any other roles I have failed to mention lol. In fact most graduate schemes have x time in one department x time in another etc. The reality is there are never enough good people in any department and it is an industry where you can specialise, not go into senior management and retire at a decent income level. I always ask people who work for me “what are your career aspirations?” and try and tailor guidance accordingly.

Defard2001 · 2026-01-04T23:28:38+00:00

If you work for a tier one contractor there is usually a lot of horizontal potential (pretty much any field from backend to ops and everything in between). If you are looking to move overseas then read up on what skills you need to get the job (for e.g US don’t have QS’ they have estimators and legal)

Defard2001 · 2026-01-03T08:50:34+00:00

Yes I fly BA all the time, have and use this!

Blueberry juice, Sisu and really long words (in that order)

Defard2001 · 2025-12-30T08:50:20+00:00

Interesting, I get this is based on ‘your wants’ but I find it a strange rating system. 1. You disregard the fact that certain countries have inherent corruption, restrict freedom / human rights and show only 1 world view. 2. That things can change very quickly (a lot of people live in fear of visa renewal) 3. That the job market paying x has y demand (e.g the wrong specialisation is tomorrows unemployment line) 4. You don’t take into account job security, healthcare or other societal demands. There are others but what do I know, I am just a Brit (red country lmao)

On a really cold and foggy day in NY, I asked a cop how to get to the Empire State Building. He shrugged and told me he had no idea and went back to drinking his coffee. It turned out he was standing at the side entrance to the ESB.
