41% of the construction workforce will retire by 2031. That’s a lot of talent and knowledge walking off the jobsite—and it’s happening faster than we can replace it. But here’s the good news: Gen Z is at a crossroads, and construction has an opportunity to capture their interest. What’s the challenge? Many young people still see construction as stuck in the past. They don’t realize how much the industry has evolved with cutting-edge tech, sustainable practices, and opportunities for real career growth. How do we fix it? 💡 Showcase the tech. Gen Z loves innovation, and construction is full of it. 📣 Share authentic stories. Put real builders front and center to show what the job is really like. 📈 Talk about career growth. The pay, benefits, and advancement opportunities are compelling—they just need to hear about it. The opportunity is huge, but the clock is ticking. #ConstructionCareers #FutureOfWork #GenZ #ConstructionInnovation

Construct Your Career

💡 Dear Construction Management Professionals, Please consider including the types of construction projects you've handled throughout your career in your LinkedIn profile.

Not only will this highlight your area of expertise, but it helps cut out the amount of irrelevant job opportunities reach-out messages you will get. Win-Win! #hiringtips #savetheinbox
