Beth is a Hi-Level Mezzanines Project Manager. Before joining the company in 2024 she built a strong foundation in the construction and design sector. With both a BA and a Master’s degree in architecture, she spent ten years working in architects’ practices and surveyors’ offices across London and Hampshire.
In these roles, she gained hands-on experience in planning applications, building regulations, surveying and draughtsmanship, developing both technical expertise and a creative approach to design.
A typical week
Beth’s weeks are busy. She usually spends one or two days out on site carrying out surveys, with the rest of the time focused on managing projects, speaking to clients and making sure everything is running smoothly.
She still does some drawing, keeping that technical skill current while she focuses on the bigger picture.
Streamlined process
Moving from draughtsman to Project Manager felt like a natural progression. Beth wanted a role that was more varied and gave her the chance to be involved in more areas of the business. “Having a background in drawing really helps,” she says. “Because I understand how mezzanine floors are designed and built, I can spot potential issues early and make decisions quickly. It also means I can combine surveying and drawing myself, which makes the whole process more efficient.” As one client put it, “it seems a more streamlined process,” and that’s exactly what Beth aims to deliver.
Solving problems
Beth enjoys having a job where no two days are the same. She likes being out on site, meeting clients and seeing projects come together. “There are always challenges – coordinating different teams, managing timelines and meeting client expectations – but that’s part of what makes it rewarding,” she says.
Looking ahead
Beth is focused on continuing to grow in her role. With project management still new to her, she is keen to build her confidence, take on more complex projects and become increasingly independent. Over time, she is looking forward to developing her skills further and playing an even bigger role in delivering successful projects for Hi-Level clients.
