CAREERS IN CONSTRUCTION
Our strategy and vision is centred around providing activities or training to help people from disadvantaged backgrounds develop both hard and soft skills, as well as building upon aspirations and increasing motivation. We deliver value for the communities we serve, creating opportunities for people to be involved in projects, supporting communities, charity groups and pioneering initiatives to support people who need it.
Are you just starting out and looking for some career inspiration? Are you a graduate looking to get your foot in the door? Not entirely sure what path to take? On the hunt for a new purpose? There are so many different roles within construction, some you might not even have thought of. For a flavour of what the construction world can really offer, take a look at the types of roles below.
