Is Fionnuala Adeyinka-Sterne a real person

No. She is invented for this page, and so are Elmhollow Construction and Pinewold Developments. The figures show a shape and describe nobody's career.

What order should the numbers go in

Value, programme, safety. A contracts director sorts on value, asks about programme, and stops the conversation if the safety record is wrong. The example follows that order inside its first role.

Is a snagging figure worth including

It is one of the most convincing lines available. Twelve hundred snagging items closed on a hospital fit out, with the occupancy permit secured inside three weeks of practical completion, is a quality result a developer feels directly in cost and in reputation.

What did the checker score it

99 out of 100, re-measured on 25 September 2026, with readable volume 3 points short. The arithmetic is 100 × 30% for parseability + 100 × 30% for completeness + 97 × 40% for content. The writing check beside it scored 95, which is 91 of the 96 points that applied, and the 435 readable words clear the volume rule's full band at 250.

Should safety qualifications be listed separately

Yes, as certifications with years. On a construction application they are checked before experience, and a qualification inside a paragraph is one a filter will not find.

Which design is this rendered in

Imprint, one of the eight layouts shown as the ATS family. The eight were chosen on 2026-09-14 from a measurement of all 37 designs: each one exports a PDF whose text layer scores exactly what the pasted text scores, on both test documents, in one column, with the reading order kept and no graphics. It sets the roles apart clearly without drawing a table, which is what breaks extraction.

Value, programme, safety

Six commercial projects worth 92 million dollars in total, five of them handed over on or before the contract date. A fourteen-storey build brought in five weeks early by reordering the facade and the interior works around a single crane. Safety incidents across three sites down from nine a year to two. Those three lines, in that order, are the whole of what a contracts director is buying.

The safety figure sits beside the programme figure on purpose. Beating a programme is easy to claim and easy to achieve badly. Beating it while the incident count falls is the claim worth making, and the supervisor role at the bottom of the page carries two years of daily work permits without a lost time injury.

Quality is the third currency

Nine hundred completed rooms inspected against the quality checklist, with 140 returned to the trade before the client ever saw them. Twelve hundred snagging items closed on a hospital fit out, and the occupancy permit secured inside three weeks of practical completion. Both are quality results expressed as a count, and both came from changing a routine rather than from working longer.

Forty subcontractors managed across three live sites, with the monthly cost report held to within 2% of the agreed budget, is the coordination line. It is not glamorous and it is the honest description of where the week goes.

Skills for a construction manager résumé, grouped

Fionnuala's skills fall into programme, commercial and site. Programme: programme management, site logistics, handover and snagging. Commercial: cost control, subcontractor management, client reporting. Site safety and quality: health and safety, quality inspection, temporary works, risk assessments. A contracts director reads the safety group first and the commercial group second.

Civils and fit-out managers weight these groups differently, so reorder them for the work you want next. The free résumé builder lets you move whole groups up or down.

From site supervisor to construction manager

A supervisor's résumé proves the day: trades coordinated, inspections passed, a programme kept for a package. The Pinewold supervisor role shows that. A site manager adds whole projects, their value and their safety record.

Construction manager lines add several sites or larger schemes: value, programme, safety and quality together. Quality is the third currency, so give the snagging and handover result a figure. The certifications guide covers site cards.

How it reads and scores

The import review read three dated roles with five achievement lines under each, one degree, ten skills, two languages and both certifications with their years. The ATS checker scored it 99 out of 100, re-measured on 25 September 2026, with readable volume 3 points short: 100 × 30% for parseability, 100 × 30% for completeness and 97 × 40% for content. The writing check scored it 95, which is 91 of the 96 points that applied here, and the five points it withheld went to one rule. How the reading and the score are produced is set out in the note on how these examples are made.

What this example leaves off

No plant inventory, no subcontractor names and no photographs of completed buildings. A contracts director assumes the plant, would rather not read a client list they may be bidding against, and can see the buildings if they ask.

Near-miss and incident narratives are left off as well. The safety record belongs on the page as a count and an outcome. Anything more detailed is an interview subject and, on a page that circulates by email, potentially somebody else's business.

What to change for your own

Change the sector. Fit-out, civils, high-rise residential, industrial and refurbishment all use this shape with different risks. Then put in your own site values, operative numbers, programme outcomes, safety record and snagging figures.

Keep the safety qualifications with years. Keep one process-change line. The guide on quantifying achievements covers the figures you may not publish, the design gallery holds 37 layouts, and the operations manager example, the electrical engineer example and the head chef example sit beside this one.
