Working as a Contracts Manager/ San Francisco, CA

Contracts Manager/ San Francisco, CA

Cumming stood out from its competitors immediately, starting from the initial interaction I had with its talent acquisition team. I had previously engaged with many Quantity Surveying consultancies, and nearly all of them had a recruiting process that was dull and unengaging. Cumming on the other hand was actively engaged from the start and never left me wondering where I stood in the recruitment process. I later learned that Cumming has received multiple awards for its world class recruiting efforts.

After starting with the company, I came to find that it is not just Cumming’s recruiting team that stands out. The company’s leadership is responsive and truly cares about the well-being of all its team members. I have also found that Cumming offers amazing opportunities to change work locations and advance one’s own career. I often get bored when staying in one location for too long, but also know that frequently moving between companies is not good for one’s resume. So for me, a company that offered relocation opportunities inclusive of project variety and the professional development that comes with it over remaining stagnant in an uninspired role, seemed like an amazing fit!

I continue to choose Cumming as my employer because of my team and leadership. I am constantly given opportunities to showcase my skills, grow and develop, both professionally and personally. The company is growing rapidly, and with that, I have seen that there is plenty of opportunity for me to grow my career in parallel, just as many of my colleagues within the company have. At Cumming, relatively young people are given opportunities to grow into senior roles if they work hard and deserve it.

Whereas our competitors might rate an employee’s performance and work product as exceptional, but note they are too young to be promoted, Cumming is where hard work meets opportunity. And that is what keeps me inspired. Every day, I get to work with and learn from some of the smartest brains in the industry. By way of example, I had never seen anyone work with Microsoft Excel at the speed and technical ability as my colleagues at Cumming. I never even knew some of this stuff was possible!
