You are probably aware that the construction industry has suffered immensely from shortages over the last five years. The government predicts that in places like east London where the Olympic Games are to be held, shortages will be even more prevalent.
Scaffolders are required for most building work, both private and commercial, indoors and
outdoors. The scope and variety of work is amazing with constant opportunities to increase your skill base.
Government health and safety regulations have become stricter. Thus many unqualified workers will be forced out of work. Between 17 and 20 thousand scaffolders need to be trained, carded and registered to work in the industry.
This is your opportunity. Starting salaries, depending on skills and demographics, range from £15,000 to £25,000 with fast progression past £35,000. Managers and owners can earn a lot more than this!
