The UK needs a million more construction workers within a decade, and over 230,000 retrofit specialists by 2030 to deliver the green economy. More than half of construction firms already struggled to recruit in 2024. AbleTalent exists to close that gap — connecting verified, qualified tradespeople with the employers building Britain's future.
