WHO WE ARE
We describe ourselves as the champion of regional contractors because we are committed to supporting the many talented construction SMEs in the North East. We aim to play a strategic role in their success and development.
​
NCBF is proactive in:
-
Raising the profile of our regional members
-
Supporting training and apprenticeships through access to grants and funding
-
Helping to future-proof the North East construction industry alongside our network of linked organisations​
We are also passionate about changing perceptions of the sector. Construction is not just hard hats and muddy boots - it offers a wide range of fulfilling career options for both men and women, from technical roles to management, design and digital.
As part of our commitment to addressing the skills gap, we launched the Building Your Future campaign in 2023. This initiative brings together employers and students to showcase the breadth of career paths in construction and to inspire the next generation to join the industry.
Leadership Team
Our leadership team is made up of experienced professionals from across the North East construction sector. They bring deep industry insight and a shared commitment to supporting member businesses and future-proofing our industry. Through strategic guidance and active engagement, they ensure NCBF continues to lead as a voice for regional contractors.
