In this episode of the Building Foundations podcast I am joined by Adewole Ademolake, a Chartered Development Manager, and the author of the Alake Dreaming blog.
Adewole writes a blog which really showcases the journey of a Surveyor but also more about the industry as a whole – a must read!
During Adewole’s career to date he has faced many obstacles and quite frankly barriers which many may run away from but with pure passion for the sector and a burning desire to get to where he wants to be.. Adewole is now a Chartered Surveyor doing the job he loves.
In this episode we talk all about;
- Adewole’s career to date and the obstacles he has faced.
- Why having family support and role models has been pivotal for him.
- Graduating with Building Surveying but moving into Development.
- Not passing your APC first time and why that isn’t the end.
- The difference between working in the public and private sector.
- Struggling to get your first role and why you must persevere.
- The role of a Development Manager.
Plus so much more, including lots of advice!
A truly inspiring, motivating, and insightful conversation.
