Schools Engagement and Early Discovery (SEED)

The construction industry has a skills shortage. The workforce is aging, and not enough young people are choosing careers with us. Schools aren’t promoting our industry the way we’d like them to. Employers are struggling to recruit and retain... join in if you know the words to this song because we’ve been singing it for decades!


We care about this sector and we know you do, too. But employers keep trying the same things and expecting different results. So, what if the issue isn’t how much outreach we’re doing, but how we’re doing it?


That’s why we created SEED: a strategic, measurable, and effective approach to schools engagement, designed alongside schools and careers experts. If you’re going to invest time, effort, and resources into outreach, it needs to be worth it. For your business, for students, and for the future of the industry.

BUILD

What is BUILD Marketing?

When you build a more stable and visible business, you can grow with confidence and invest in social value like attracting your future workforce.


Maybe you want to do more with your business impact. Do more for the environment, social justice and sustainable finance. Do more for the construction industry (maybe you're passionate about diversity and inclusion, mental health, or the gender pay gap). Do more with technology and innovation. Do more for your own team and community.


Marketing and communications are the tools to get you everything you want.


Inspiring the next generation into careers in construction and creating purpose for the young workforce is the work we love. So, when you win, we win. And schools and students win.
