Construction People

If you’ve been working for a builder for a while, you might be thinking about making a change. Having recruited client-side project managers for years, I’ve seen both sides of the fence and can share insights into the pros and cons of making the transition. Here’s what you need to know https://lnkd.in/ghUhksfP #projectmanagement #constructionjobs #constructionindustry #ConstructionPeople

What is industrialised construction? Industrialised construction involves using more innovative techniques and processes compared to traditional construction methods. Operations are more automated, and much of the manufacturing occurs off-site before being transported to the site location and assembled there. It’s not necessarily a new concept; rather, it’s gaining traction due to the increasing demands on efficiency, project margins, and dire skilled labour shortages. For a brief, unbiased snapshot of the pros and the cons of industrialised construction, read our short article here https://lnkd.in/gkBWq-tg   Otherwise, what is for certain, is that change in the construction industry is constant, and construction firms are finding it increasingly difficult to hire people with the right skills. So, it’s important to keep on top of developments and place yourself ahead of the curve, presenting yourself as the talent needed to lead, innovate and achieve the best outcomes during the already inevitable transformation towards a different ‘next normal’ that’s facing the construction industry. #constructionindustry #constructionjobs #ConstructionPeople

In my experience and belief, if you have multiple job offers or are close to cementing another offer, it’s in your best interest to communicate this. Being transparent with what you have on the table across the board can open negotiations and potential benefits for you by just having that conversation. At the end of the day, you don’t know what an employer will offer until you let them know where you’re at and what they’re up against. There’s always the possibility that the employer can’t match another offer and may say they have already offered the absolute best they can, and so be it, but at least you know one way or the other what their true offer is. OR, the employer could return with some other benefits that you weren’t aware of that could be of great value to you like; a car park for a city office or project, extra annual leave, personal income insurance, covering the cost of further education, provided meals etc. #ConstructionPeople

Some people in the construction industry might think that a busy job market automatically means they should be getting paid more, without really justifying it. But the truth is, builders aren't necessarily making more money right now, so without adding extra value, you might risk getting knocked back. Keep in mind that everyone in your role has similar skills and responsibilities—so what sets you apart? Why should you earn the same or more than your peers? When you’re negotiating salary, focus on how you add value, not just what the market is doing. Use real examples of your performance, like how you achieved specific goals on your last project that benefited the company, or how you took on tasks beyond your usual duties. In other words, talk about how you’re personally making a difference and adding value to your projects. This approach works whether you’re negotiating with your current employer or a potential one. #constructionjobs #constructionindustry #salarynegotiation #ConstructionPeople
