Career Changers
If you are looking for a new direction and a fresh start, we're with you every step of the way to an exciting new career.
Whether you are coming from another job role within the industry or joining from a completely different sector, our Career Changers Programme will support your ongoing learning & development to achieve your career ambitions.
In an ever-evolving job market, we see many professionals considering a career change to work within the construction industry as it offers a wide variety of roles to suit many skill sets.
We recognise some experiences and skills are transferrable to our roles, adding value to our diverse and collaborative teams.
We encourage you to look at the job opportunities available to see the skills and competencies that you already possess, including strong teamworking, problem solving and communication skills.
If you are looking for a change of direction for your career then G&T might be the place for you
Our Career Changers Programme covers three categories:
Career Changer
For those of you coming from a non-construction related industry and looking to build a career within the built environment. You will be joining other career changers such as teachers, healthcare providers, accountants and legal assistants.
You will be fully supported in your technical training through our early talent programme to ensure you have the key base knowledge to succeed within your role.
Construction Career Shifter
For those of you currently working in, or have previously worked in, construction and the built environment and are looking to either re-join the industry or switch to another role or discipline. Historically this has included architects, engineers, building surveyors and site managers for example.
We will support you through a tailored training plan in working towards your professional chartership.
Military Veterans
As a signatory of the Armed Forces Covenant and a forces-friendly employer, we are proud to offer paths into the construction industry for those who have served. Prior construction knowledge is not a pre-requisite and we are open to applications from across the tri-services.
Common routes of progression for service leavers include procurement and project management-focused careers where the skills gained during service can be harnessed and supplemented by our in-house training programmes.
