The construction sector faces structural challenges: soaring materials costs, a shortage of skilled labour, tightening environmental regulations (RE2020, decarbonisation), and lengthening planning permission timelines. These pressures create ad hoc needs for experienced leadership to handle site crises, restructure distressed businesses, or steer complex projects.
