Yesterday, we were delighted to attend the HBF Parliamentary Skills Reception 2026, an event celebrating the varied roles and pathways that lead to rewarding careers across the home building sector. Bringing together apprentices, trainees, graduates and industry leaders, the reception shines a light on the incredible opportunities our sector creates and the vital role it plays in supporting local economies and communities. In attendance on behalf of Gleeson were Debi Lindsay, Early Talent Coordinator, Chloe Bingham, Senior Communications Manager, Max Thompson, Technical Graduate, Chloe Hargreaves, Trainee Assistant Site Manager and Lewis Gardiner, Apprentice Joiner. With the industry needing tens of thousands of additional skilled workers each year to meet future housing ambitions, it’s more important than ever that we inspire and encourage the next generation into our sector. A huge thank you to the Home Builders Federation (HBF) for inviting us to be part of this year’s event. #HBF #HBFSkillsReception #Apprenticeships #Graduates #Construction

✨ National Apprenticeship Week ✨ This week, we’re celebrating National Apprenticeship Week by shining a light on the people who are building their careers with Gleeson. We’ve spoken to several apprentices from across the business, from office-based roles to site-based, and we’ll be sharing their stories throughout the week. Today, we’re highlighting Niall Prince, who started his journey with Gleeson as an Apprentice Bricklayer four years ago and has since progressed into a Trainee Assistant Site Manager role. Visit our YouTube channel to take a look at Niall’s full story! 👉 https://lnkd.in/eRs7Dyim At Gleeson, we’re committed to creating meaningful earn and learn opportunities. Our sustainability target is for 10% of our workforce to be in earn and learn roles, including apprentices, trainees and graduates. These roles offer young people and those looking to enhance their skills, the chance to gain paid employment, recognised qualifications and hands-on experience. We currently support 36 full-time apprentices, alongside five trainees completing apprenticeship qualifications and two permanent employees undertaking degree apprenticeships. This reflects our belief that learning doesn’t stop once you enter the workplace. We’re proud of everyone on their apprenticeship journey and look forward to welcoming even more apprentices to Gleeson in the near future. #NationalApprenticeshipWeek #Apprenticeships #CareersAtGleeson #FutureTalent

Last week, our South and West Yorkshire office organised several Halloween-themed activities, all in support of our charity partner, Zarach, the Children’s Bed Charity. From transforming the office with spooky decorations to hosting a fancy dress competition, raffle, and even a “guess the number of eyeballs” challenge, the team went all out for a fantastic cause. Thanks to everyone’s creativity and generosity, the event raised £103 which is almost enough to fund an entire bed package for a family in need. 🛏️💙 An amazing team effort from the South and West Yorkshire office, happy Halloween! #Fundraising #Charity Zarach #Halloween
From renting to owning! NHS paramedic Melissa swapped her small rented flat for a cosy new 2-bedroom Mayfield home at our Hollinwell Heath development in Kirkby-in-Ashfield. With help from our Key Worker Scheme and a 5% deposit contribution, she’s now proud to call herself a homeowner! “I chose the Mayfield because it was affordable and the right size for me. I live on my own and don’t currently need a huge amount of space. Plus, the buying incentives were really good!” Read Melissa’s full story here: https://lnkd.in/e4JaBEZN #GleesonHomes #CustomerStory #KeyWorker #FirstHome
