Curtain Wall Draftspeople
Speaking to a client yesterday, they are getting a lot of enquiry and expecting a busy 2012. Currently need AutoCAD draftsperson - perhaps more than one, with significant experience in Curtain Wall design / drafting.
Someone who has 'done curtain walls' as a one off project or a short part of their career is not likely to be successful - this company wants someone who could be said to be a curtain wall specialist.
I have not discussed overseas applications with them, but they did briefly consider a guy in the Phillipines I put forward - But he only did one small multistorey project and some aluminium architectural work, balustrading etc, while he worked in UAE.
Auckland based role.
Develop shop drawing plans, elevations, wall sections and details for architectural aluminium products, from estimate take off, project specifications, architectural and structural drawings
• Revise drawings as required or as directed per mark-ups and written directions
• Meet submission & fabrication schedules
• Implement fabrication drawings from approved shop drawings and parameters
• Complete material take off
• Work closely with Engineering, Estimating, and project Management in developing drawings
Minimum two (2) years relevant experience and a recognised Technical Drafting qualification
• Must be proficient in AutoCAD, Microsoft Office, BOM programs
• Must be capable of creating, reading, and interpreting architectural plans and structural drawings
• Good communication skills and the ability to work with all levels within the organization
• Must be able to meet scheduling deadlines and work well under pressure
• Must be self-motivated, flexible, and have good documentation skills
• Extensive experience in curtainwall industry or projects required
Cheers
