THE STORY OF THE BRIDGE BATTALION

We are continuously improving our skills & restless effort for the good of every project.

Marek Jura commenced his journey in construction at the young age of only 14 years old - while assisting his father with his building and construction company.

Gaining valuable experience across many different areas within the construction industry, Marek worked in various roles along his building journey - climbing up the hierarchy ladder from labourer, leading hand, foreman and subsequently to a site supervisor role.

As a result, this provided him with significant understanding of complex construction processes and human factor limitations, things that can only be experienced when personally performing such works. Certified in Project Management, he has become adept at delivering proficient project outcomes within realistic timeframes and budget constraints.

With a passion for building & engineering, Marek went on to gain a Masters of Civil Engineering specialising in Bridge Engineering & Construction Methods.

Having also completed a Building Technician course with a focus on Building and Structural Design, this catapulted him into a highly successful career in the engineering field - with involvement in businesses with profits of up to 180 million euro.

Heavily involved in the construction supervision of demolition/excavation works and bridge structures, he has competently adhered to: relevant OHS practices, maintained QA systems and policies, actively coordinated works, liaised with key stakeholders and planned work activities to strict budget and time requirements - effectively mitigating risks.

Adaptable to changing work environments with exceptional ability to quickly modify work methods as per new regulations by leveraging on gained work experience from varied markets in Germany/Poland/Australia and knowledge of International Procedures of Organization of Investments. With comprehensive knowledge of Australian Quality and Safety requirements, as well as industry standards on RMS projects, Bridge Battalion is a formidable ally for all clients looking to complete Bridge Construction and Structural Engineering tasks.
