Quotes Attributable to Denita Wawn, CEO of Master Builders Australia; 

“Master Builders Australia is thrilled to be releasing our Construct Your Career guide, which really is the ultimate tool for anyone considering a job in our industry.

“We have a significant skills shortage in this country, and we’re proud of the work Master Builders Associations are doing across the country to encourage more people, especially young people and women, to consider our industry for their future career.

“The biggest challenge to attract people into the industry starts at home and school with increasing pressure for students to pursue a university degree over vocational education and training.

“We believe that if we are going to solve the skills crisis and increase the diversity of new entrants into the industry, this has to start at the very beginning of a person’s career decisions.

“More and more, people are realising the benefits of a career in the trades and by hearing directly from those already working in the industry, across all three sectors that Master Builders represent, Australians can get a comprehensive understanding of the exciting opportunities in building and construction right now through this guide.

“We’ll be making this important resource available to all who want it and it’s our hope that schools and careers advisors right across the country are able to use it to help students considering and trade and parents looking to help their child make the best choices moving forward.”
