Introducing our 1 Broadgate Strong Foundations Grant recipients
08 Jan 2024Congratulations to the 11 charities and community projects that have been awarded a share of our 1 Broadgate Strong Foundations Grant for 2023.
We opened our doors to seven construction sites during Open Doors Week, an annual event that offers people a unique opportunity to learn about the construction industry and explore the exciting career opportunities available with Sir Robert McAlpine.
Delivered by Build UK, Open Doors Week is the leading representative organisation for the UK construction industry. This initiative brings together construction companies and educational institutions to showcase the industry to young people, job seekers and anyone looking to explore a career in construction. This year's event ran from 18th - 23rd March 2024 as seven of our live construction sites opened the doors to provide site tours, workshops, and talks. The site visits also offered insights into the latest technologies and innovations in the industry, as well as providing opportunities to talk to current employees and ask questions about their roles.

We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workforce and welcome people from all backgrounds to explore careers in construction. We offer a range of careers including apprenticeships, graduate schemes, and other training opportunities to help people develop their skills and progress their careers within the construction industry.
Huge thanks to everyone who came along to visit our live construction sites, and to our expert site teams for giving exclusive behind the scenes tours.
We welcomed a number of local students, job seekers and interested members of the public to our open doors events over the past few days. All enjoyed the experience and especially the interactive views of our BIM model.
