Testimonial

“Trying to navigate the best time to move from a Quantity Surveyor role into the world of construction disputes can be a challenging endeavour. If you are like me, you might not have any idea where to start. That is how I found Maxim Recruitment who showed me the way in which I could make the transition. The guidance and support I received from Nilam was absolutely fantastic and I can confidently say I would not have been able to make the transition without her support. Her knowledge from the type of firm to the role and all the information I needed to make the successful transition was immeasurable. Having only three years’ experience as a QS but with a keen interest in Construction disputes paired with the guidance of Nilam secured my role as an Associate with a world leading construction disputes consultancy. Although I was a little apprehensive at first having only three years’ experience as a QS, my opinion is that it has enabled me to start with an open view and an eagerness to learn in this niche industry. The one piece of advice I would give those of similar experience (or lack of) is that if you are interested, willing to learn and certain this is the area you wish to work in then do not wait - you could make the transition sooner than you think! ”
