Schools
Showing young people the pathways into careers in construction
We work closely with schools and young people to teach them about the wide variety of careers open to everyone in the world of construction. By helping them to see the opportunities available in our industry from a young age, we are broadening their career possibilities and investing in our future workforce.
We know that the construction sector is facing major challenges in attracting, developing and retaining skilled people to meet the demands of the sector.
We run various engagement programmes with schools in the regions where we operate to raise awareness of and create enthusiasm for the wide variety of career paths that are available in construction.
We work directly with young people of all ages – visiting them in the classroom and giving them access to our projects and teams. They are our workforce of tomorrow so investing in them is critical to the future of our industry.
Our expertise is in delivering large, complex and challenging projects. Working at Multiplex, you will have the opportunity to work on the big jobs - the kind of projects you’ll look back on and be proud to say you helped build.
