For construction business owners, it’s crucial to start 2026 properly, not optimistically, writes Greg Wilkes.

Through a collaborative approach to recruitment and upskilling, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is committed to helping construction employers meet the industry’s workforce demands.

Most SME owners think their biggest challenge is winning more work. Let’s be honest, the real challenge is leading people.

Future-proofing the workforce is fundamental to tackling the challenges facing the regeneration sector and the wider construction industry.

Strong leadership turns construction clients into long-term partners and builds a reputation for reliability and trust.
