News: CIOB continues to sponsor SME of the Year

27 November 2019

SMEs are the backbone of the industry and are recognised by Constructing Excellence and the CIOB for their dominance of and contribution to the supply chain.

“These awards closely align with what we look for in our Chartered Building Companies and Consultancies. We are proud to continue to sponsor these awards that are looking for companies that operate to high business and ethical standards and are committed to developing a fully qualified workforce.” Helen Patel, Employer Engagement Manager, CIOB.

The Chartered Institute of Building is at the heart of a management career in construction; the world’s largest and most influential professional body for construction management and leadership. They have a Royal Charter to promote the science and practice of building and construction for the benefit of society, and have been doing that since 1834. Their members work worldwide in the development, conservation and improvement of the built environment.

As well as the different grades for individual membership (eg Chartered Fellow/Member, Applicant or student), the CIOB can also offer Chartered status for businesses, under the Chartered Building Company or Chartered Building Consultancy (CBC) scheme.
