OUR PEOPLE

Where quality is a journey and not the destination

British Builders was established in 2017 and is one of the leading privately-owned construction, development and property services businesses in the UK. Our supply chain consists of approximately 600 trusted traders/businesses. Together, we inspire better ways of creating places, communities and businesses of tomorrow.

We work on projects of all sizes, complexilies and sectors spanning the UK. We work across a range of sectors including education, health, housing, highways and rail

We provide ourselves in having our clients best interests at heart by building strong, trusted and sustainable relationships. Our flexible and personalised approach to each project ensures we deliver the very best outcome for each and every client on time and on budget.

We see our supply chain as much more than just sub-contractors and suppliers. Our performance depends directly on them. So we make huge efforts to choose the right companies, and to maintain and improve our relationships with them over the long term.

We categorise our sub-contractors, from those who’ve just started working with us right through to ‘Category one’: companies that achieve the highest standards while always looking for continuous improvement.

We are committed to a local supply chain wherever possible. Working with local companies brings a range of benefits: local knowledge, local people, support for the local economy and a smaller carbon footprint. It also helps us support our targets in relation to sustainable and local procurement. Over 95% of our sub-contractors are Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and are key to our success and growth.

With true family values, our people stay and grow with us

Our responsibility for people extends beyond those directly employed by British Builders to include all those who form part of our supply chain. We aim to create a diverse environment and invest in relationships that develop the industry. We address the construction skills shortage and promote the wider UK economy through supporting the training and development of local construction trades and creating long-term employment opportunities.

We want to be a welcomed neighbour in every local area within which we operate; that means positively contributing to the community and pro-actively minimising disruption and inconvenience caused by construction activities. We recognise the need to promote a positive image of the construction industry to tackle the skills gap and attract more individuals into the industry.
