We’ve already looked at bricklaying and roofing – two careers that are in high demand and can offer brilliant long-term prospects. But for a young person just starting out, the construction sector literally has hundreds of other opportunities. To conclude our What’s Next series, this week’s blog explores some of those options.
Late payments have long been a thorn in the side of UK businesses – and for those in the construction sector, they can be the difference between thriving and closing the doors for good. Now, the government is stepping in with the most ambitious reforms in decades, promising to tackle late payments head-on and give small businesses the fair treatment they deserve.
With new legislation on the horizon, this could be a turning point for an issue that has plagued our industry for years. But what exactly will it involve and will it be enough? Keep reading to find out more.
With young people nervously awaiting their exam results, many will be eagerly looking forward to starting sixth form or college in the autumn.
Others, however, may still be feeling stuck as to how to answer that big question – what next? As not everyone wants to take a full-on academic route, we’re sharing our insights into some of the practical careers available in construction. We already looked at roofing back in June, so this week we’re asking – ‘could bricklaying be your path?’
Just a few weeks ago, we explored how data centres could act as a bright new dawn for the UK construction sector – offering strong demand, diverse project types and potential for retrofits and technical innovation.

Earlier this year, we announced that Sheriff Construction had passed a vigorous vetting process to become an official Trade Member of the National Federation of Roofing Contractors.
Now, in this week’s blog, we’ll dive a bit deeper and explore why choosing an NFRC projects is essential for clients looking for peace of mind when it comes to quality, safety, compliance, professionalism and reliability.
Sheriff Construction’s office team has had the pleasure of welcoming two young people on work experience placements within the last month – one from a local school and another from a further education college.
In both cases, the experience was mutually beneficial – offering the students a real taste of a working office environment, while providing Sheriff with a fresh perspective on its processes. Read our blog to find out more about this win-win situation.
Cyber security threats are escalating across the UK, with more than 40% of businesses and 30% of charities reporting breaches over the past 12 months. Even household names like Marks & Spencer, Co-op and Harrods were recently forced to suspend online operations to contain cyber-attacks.
This surge highlights that cyber-crime is happening right now and it could affect anyone. For organisations, the consequences can be particularly severe, including financial losses, reputational damage and operational disruption. Take a look at this week’s blog to find out what this means for our industry and what Sheriff Construction is doing to protect your data.
As the school year starts to wrap up, thousands of young people across the UK are finishing their studies and asking the big question: what next?
Following a strictly academic route isn’t for everyone, meaning plenty of school-leavers are looking for something more practical and hands-on. In such cases, roofing (one of the most in-demand trades in the construction industry) could be the path well worth exploring. Find out more about this rewarding career option in this week’s blog.
The UK government has recently announced that, under the Future Homes Standard (to be published this Autumn), the majority of new build properties will be required to include rooftop solar panels, unless site-specific factors such as shading make it impractical.
It’s a move designed to help households save on energy bills while cutting carbon emissions and boosting the UK’s energy security. In this week’s blog, we explore what the announcement means in practice, how the industry is reacting, and what housebuilders and developers should expect next.
