CITB-ConstructionSkills is proud to sponsor the Construction Manager of the Year Awards 2010. As the Sector Skills Council and Industry Training Board for construction, we work to deliver a safe, professional and fully qualified UK construction workforce. This is done with dedicated support from our industry partners, including the CIOB.
We believe that developing the skills of workers in the construction industry is vital to the health of the UK economy, which at this challenging time has never been more important as we look to renewed growth.
We’ve pledged to deliver the right skills, in the right place and at the right time for the industry, supported by our CITB-ConstructionSkills Network Report, and work with local communities to bolster the development of skills where they are needed.
From apprentices through to undergraduates and young professionals we work to encourage more young people from all backgrounds to look to construction as a great career choice. This will help employers to future proof their business, improve sustainability and increase their productivity and bottom line.
At the same time, recognising the hard work and dedication of our most talented workers, such as through the Manager of the Year Awards, is equally important as these leaders will be instrumental in helping to drive the success of the industry for years to come.
COINS is pleased to be associated with these awards for the seventh consecutive year. We continue to work with our clients to add value to their businesses through the processes and solutions we implement. CMYA reflects our commitment to work in partnership not only with our customers but the industry, in its widest sense, in general.
COINS has focused on the Construction & Engineering, Property Development, Facilities Management & Service, and Plant Hire & Sales sectors of the industry for approaching two decades. Our offices in the UK, North America, Ireland, Australia, Russia and Malaysia support our growing global client base.
The COINS Foundation is a separate organisation and registered charity, fully paid for from COINS profits so that 100% of all funds raised go to projects. The COINS Foundation seeks to work in genuine partnership to address the needs of the most excluded communities in the world and our biggest fund raising event , the COINS 3 Peaks Challenge, attracts up to 50 teams from the construction industry every year.
