Ed Wong
BSc (Hons)
Assistant Quantity SurveyorÂ
After finishing my degree in Quantity Surveying at the University of Hong Kong, I moved to the UK and joined Hive Projects. Since then, I have primarily worked on providing support to the teams in the area of quantity surveying for various large-scale projects.
History is one of my favourite subjects as it enables me to comprehend how past events have shaped the world we live in today and provides me with a context of identity, which is valuable. Recently, I had the opportunity to work on a project at Liverpool Waters, where understanding the place’s history and significance was essential in completing the work successfully.
As someone who is new to the UK, I am still getting familiar with the local construction industry, and the variances to how it operates overseas. However, I believe that the most significant challenge currently faced by the industry is the increasing cost of construction, which can be attributed to various geopolitical and environmental factors.
