Meet Cameron, learn about her career path and experience of working at Arch Henderson.
Q. How long have you worked at Arch Henderson?
5 years.
Q. What do you enjoy about working for Arch Henderson?
I enjoy working for Arch Henderson because of the friendly environment and staff team. The nature of our work means that most projects require a bespoke design, some of which I might have never done before; my colleagues are always keen to support one another and share knowledge to provide a suitable design solution.
Q. How has your career developed at Arch Henderson?
I started at Arch Henderson as a Junior Technician and have worked my way up over the years to Civil Engineering Technician. Arch Henderson have supported me through numerous qualifications whether that be online tutorials, day-release to college, or in-person seminars. The support has been invaluable, especially while undertaking an HNC, an HND, and most recently my EngTech application. Having colleagues willing to review my work and act as a mentor really helped to build confidence with portfolios, my day-to-day work and within myself.
Q. What is your favourite project you have worked on and why?
My favourite project I have worked on to date is the Seagreen project; this was the first project I worked on from conception to completion and was also the first project that I was given design responsibility for. I was trusted with undertaking a large portion of the civils design including the roads and car park, site levels and drainage design whilst being overseen by a Senior Engineer. I enjoyed working on this because I felt more involved and up-to-speed on design decisions throughout the project and I gained a better understanding of how design decisions are made through collaboration with both the internal and external design team members.
