in charge of overall project: Reward, happiness and thankfulness as a construction personnel
Samyeong Global raises its competitive power to create bigger added value
Manager Park joined Samyeong Global in May, 2010. His former worksite was near ILJIN Diamond, Eumseong, Chubbuck so he knew ILJIN and Samyeong Global fairly well. However, when he joined the company, he was worried about one thing. <>“Can Samyeong Global survive as a construction company within ILJIN Group which mainly focuses on manufacturing?”
What do you think now?
It was a pointless worry. I can tell by how much Samyeong grew since I joined the company, Beyond survival, I can confidently tell that Samyeong will be the sector that creates the most added values in the future with strong competitive power.
What is Samyeong Global?
Samyeong Global is a multi-construction company that wins and builds various industrial infrastructures in public and private sector. Mainly, our civil engineering works include streets, ports, dams, embankment, golf courses and our construction works include apartments, schools, plants, complex-office buildings.
What are your responsibilities?
As the technical operation team manager, I manage and support general construction site from the building after winning the contract. To be specific, I manage any works related to construction per project such as administration works, team management, cost management, process management, quality management, safety controls and such.
When do you feel rewarded?
Whenever the constructional engineers come across a bridge with their families and tell the children “hey kids, I built this bridge,” the children will respond “Wow, you are great!” The children have the chance to express their pride to their fathers for what they’ve done. Whenever I hear similar stories, I feel much rewarded.
Can you introduce the works specifically for the future construction employees?
The construction management works can be divided into before, during and after the construction. Before the construction, we manage works such as planning management, construction management, various support, material purchase, select outsourcing partners and contract management works on top of bidding quotation and support works. During the construction, I manage the construction process, assets, cost, and site quality. After the construction, I do my best to provide site’s after service.
What are some qualities that those who wish to join Samyeong Global can train?
First, one should experience both construction and office works. If one concentrates only on one area, he or she may struggle when managing some works such as on-site management. Also, one must build reputation as a technician through promotion training and other training sessions. Lastly, whether one is on office duties or on construction site, one must build knowledge through readings and have curiosity for various aspects in order to become a good construction engineer.
Any advice to the potential juniors?
