Hi Everyone,
New to this forum and the Planning environment and I am desperate for some advice...
I am 37, started working as a DOcument Controller last June at Olympic Park in Stratfordwith no prior experience within the construction sector in this role (but I have previous in telecoms). I have spoken to a few individuals working for the main contractor all of whom have suggested that if I want to progress (ehich I desperately want to do) then I should aim to become a project planner - trouble is, being at the foot of the ladder, I have NO IDEA where to start!
I have no formal qualificationsin the field but have been told that perhaps gaining a qualification in construction management might be a start?... Can anyone please help as I came out of my comfort zone last year (Leisure Management) to start a new one and now this job is coming to an end, I don;t want to get stuck in the role of a document controller...
Many thanks in advance!
