UKCW Role Models

INSPIRE THE NEW GENERATION

The UKCW’s Role Models campaign seeks to recognise the unsung heroes and talented professionals in the construction industry and showcase the many varied career opportunities within it, attracting others into similar roles by sharing inspiring stories and career journeys.

For 2024 we are splitting the award into three new categories: Rising Star, Pioneer & Icon. Find out more below.

The shortlist will be announced at UKCW London, and the winners will be crowned this October at UKCW Birmingham.
