Over 224,000 jobs in construction need to be created in the next five years to meet with industry’s infrastructure demands and skills shortages in Britain. Buckinghamshire University Technical College (UTC) for example has teamed up with sponsor Taylor Wimpey.

With over 150 career paths to choose from, there’s a great choice of different job opportunities for young people either in traditional building trades, or non-site roles such as design and technical. There are also opportunities to progress into the more professional side of the built environment which include site management, surveying, technical drawing etc.
