Meet Alex, our new apprentice.
According to @CITB_UK, #construction will need 216,800 new workers by 2025 to meet demand. Apprenticeships are a key to help with skills shortages in construction and we are committed to developing future industry leaders.

It's great to have commenced work on our latest project, a new Hilton Hotel at Creed Court, in the heart of the St. Paul's conservation area, for our client @DominvsGroup. #clerkofworks#construction
We're excited to be working as QS + PM on the historic refurbishment of @wschool's cricket pavilion in Vincent Square, one of central London's largest green spaces.
The project is on site, and we're working with architects Ptolemy Dean to see it through to completion next summer
The @ConstructionCLC warn the 'unprecedented' materials shortage will continue well in to the second half of 2021.
Having the working knowledge of #QS is therefore crucial to the successful completion of a project.

Congratulations to @BrentfordFC on reaching the @premierleague. The amazing new stadium delivered by @EcoWorldLondon deserves to be at the top table of English football 🐝
"Projects are taking longer and costing more."
Key materials are in short supply and prices have risen by as much as 20%. Judgement of supply chains and prudent management of key materials is vital to the successful completion of projects.
