Construction job boom to continue

A new report published by the Construction Industry Training Board has estimated that 200,000 new jobs will be created within the construction sector by 2019. This means 40,000 workers will be needed to fill new vacancies each year, 8,000 more than previously expected. The report also predicts that private housing will increase by 4.6% over the next few years. Annual average construction output will rise by an average of 2.9% across the UK. A separate survey has found that the number of graduates has reached a record high, with new graduate posts within the construction industry rising by 22.1%, the third most significant growth behind the tech industry and the Teach First programme.
