One of the largest employers in the UK, the construction industry is worth around £110 billion and employs over 2.7 million people. Job roles are varied from the traditional trades of joinery, plumbing, electrical and bricklaying to surveying, architecture, design and town planning with lots of office-based roles as well as on site. With opportunities for self-employment as well as international travel, this industry demands people who are ambitious, good problem solvers and expert negotiators.

“I was initially focussed on getting a better career, but my experience at college has given me loads more. The tutors all know what it’s like to be on the tools and put what you learn into context.”
