Building The Future Awards

Building The Future Awards Celebrating the achievements, talents and hard work of people 18-35 in the construction industry

30/07/2026

Every partnership we build, every conversation we have, and every initiative we launch is driven by one goal: creating more opportunities for the next generation.
At Building the Future, we’re connecting education with industry, developing talent, and helping organisations build the workforce they need for the future.
Because meaningful impact isn't created through one event. It's built through collaboration, long-term commitment, and a shared vision for a stronger industry.

There's still plenty of work to do, but we're proud of the progress we're making together.

If you're passionate about shaping the future of construction, we'd love to connect.

Congratulations, Ellie Farlow from AtkinsRealis on being named Role Model of the Year at the Building the Future Awards 2025. 🏆

Ellie Farlow has shown that leadership isn't defined by a job title, it's defined by the positive impact you have on the people around you.

Construction doesn't just shape skylines. It shapes lives. From the first foundation to the final finishing touch, every project represents more than technical expertise. It reflects collaboration, innovation and a shared commitment to creating places where people can live, learn, work and thrive.
That is the lasting social value of the construction and built environment sector. It's also why recognising the people behind that impact matters.

The National Building the Future Awards 2026 celebrates the individuals, teams and organisations whose work goes beyond delivering projects. They are creating opportunities, inspiring the next generation and building stronger communities through the built environment.
Because the greatest legacy of construction isn't simply the buildings we leave behind. It's the positive impact those buildings have on people's lives.

Behind every successful apprentice is a story of early mornings, continuous learning, resilience and a commitment to mastering a craft that will shape our communities for generations to come. Young professionals like Sianna Borland remind us that the future of construction isn't something we wait for, it's something people are building every single day.

At the Building the Future Awards, social value has always been at the heart of what we do. We believe that recognising and celebrating the people making a real difference is just as important as celebrating the projects themselves. By shining a spotlight on emerging talent, we hope to inspire more young people to see construction as a career where they can create lasting impact.

Today, we're proud to celebrate Sianna Borland, Young Apprentice of the Year – Building the Future Awards 2025.🏆
Sianna's dedication, professionalism and genuine passion for her profession have earned her this well-deserved recognition. Her journey is a reminder that excellence isn't achieved overnight, it's built through commitment, perseverance and a willingness to keep learning.

Congratulations, Sianna. We are incredibly proud of what you've achieved and wish you every success as you continue building an outstanding career. The future of our industry is brighter because of people like you.

Every successful career starts with one decision: taking the next step.

Career growth isn't one giant leap. It's built through consistent progress.

At Building the Future, we believe that journey starts with exposure, grows through recognition, and is sustained by a strong community of mentors and industry professionals. That's how careers are built.
Wherever you are in your journey, focus on your next step, not the entire staircase.

For anyone considering a future in construction, there has never been a better time to explore the opportunities the industry has to offer.
