CLC’s three-year strategy
26 September 2022
The Construction Leadership Council (CLC) has announced a new strategy and its priorities for the next three years.
Since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, the organisation has become increasingly visible, working in partnership with government and responding to short-term challenges while setting a plan for transformational change.
In June, following a public competition, Mark Reynolds (Mace group chairman and CEO) took over as the CLC’s new industry co-chair, supported by Richard Robinson (Atkins CEO, UK and Europe) as the new deputy co-chair.
The new strategy focuses on four long-term ambitions to boost productivity and create a more resilient industry for future growth, namely: net zero and biodiversity, next-generation delivery, building safety, and people and skills.
The CLC states that it will also react to immediate challenges including the impacts of inflation and business sustainability.
Mark Reynolds said: “We must work together to overcome the challenges we face and leverage the opportunities available. I’d encourage everyone across the sector to step forward and engage with the new strategy.”
The CLC will also recruit industry sponsors and young ambassadors to sit within its new structure. The latter will be professionals currently working in the sector and at an earlier stage in their careers, acting as a voice for their peers and supporting the CLC’s succession planning.
