Workload query. High - low
Burner account for obvious reasons.
I'm a senior level PQS working for a medium-sized firm in the English speaking Caribbean. Postgrad in PM and this is also relevant.
At the moment this is my workload:
-PM 6 contracts over 5 clients £100k - £5.2M
-QS 9 contracts over 6 clients £100k - £7M
-Business development - 7 rfps out to win new work
-IT - manage all the local infrastructure
Of of the above, a junior assists on 1 qs job, I sort of inherited the job as they needed some supervision. 2 of the pm jobs are dual role but not included in the qs count. Outside of that it's just me responsible for this list, we tried headhunting staff, but the market is just too hot.
The projects are all in various stages of progression, preliminary design, estimate, pre-contract, tender, post contract, near PC you name it.
Oddly, the I.T stuff is a welcome break when that comes along
Is this typical of a senior position advancing up? I feel like I'm taking on too much at the moment and the money isn't keeping up with inflation. It was good when I started but cost of living since then is up nearly 50%.
Maybe I should just keep my sanity in tact, quit and farm goats.
Opinions?
