RICS Young Surveyor of the Year Awards 2019

Congratulations to G&T’s Uwais Paderwala, who was named Apprentice of the Year 2019 at the RICS Young Surveyor of the Year (YSOTY) awards last Friday. 

Uwais joined G&T in 2011 as an apprentice, becoming a fully chartered surveyor after passing his APC last November. He is part of G&T’s NextGen and an advocate for the Apprenticeship Trailblazer in Quantity Surveying, often speaking at industry events on behalf of the scheme.

“It was amazing to spend the night with family, friends and colleagues to celebrate this fantastic achievement. I’m grateful my hard work over the past seven years has been recognised and I’m thankful to everyone at G&T who has supported and guided me.
