Lost opportunities to close the gap between skills demand and capacity already cost the economy this much each year*. In construction alone, we need 10,000 additional workers by 2029 to meet demand in an industry where the average age is over 40** and retirement rates are climbing.<\/p><p>The challenge goes beyond replenishing an ageing workforce. The UK&#8217;s skills pipeline must also cater for emerging industries, ambitious infrastructure projects, and rapidly evolving technology. With NISTA&#8217;s Infrastructure Pipeline identifying 185 construction projects worth \u00a3168 billion over the next decade, the stakes couldn&#8217;t be higher.<\/p><p>As patron members of The 5% Club, we\u2019re interested to understand how organisations can anticipate demand for skilled workers to prepare for investment and growth. Over the coming months, we&#8217;ll explore six critical questions that industry and employers must tackle to meet this challenge, sharing perspectives from companies on the front line of skills investment:<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><ol><li><strong>What does historic performance tell us about skills demand for upcoming projects in the UK?<\/strong> Understanding past patterns helps predict future needs, but rapid technological change means historical data only tells part of the story.<\/li><li><strong>How can we anticipate the skills demand for emerging industries and technologies?<\/strong> From renewable energy to AI implementation, new sectors require new capabilities that traditional training hasn&#8217;t addressed.<\/li><li><strong>How do we build the capacity in supply chains and organisations to deliver these investments?<\/strong> Individual company efforts aren&#8217;t enough &#8211; whole supply chains need coordinated skills development.<\/li><li><strong>How do companies make the case for skills investments when budgets are under strain?<\/strong> With economic uncertainty, skills training often gets cut first, yet it&#8217;s precisely when organisations most need adaptable, skilled workers.<\/li><li><strong>What are the leadership challenges of organisations that are critically reliant on skills development?<\/strong> Leaders must balance immediate delivery pressures with long-term capability building.<\/li><li><strong>How do we embed skills capacity to serve future demand?<\/strong> Moving beyond reactive training to create sustainable systems that anticipate and respond to changing needs.<\/li><\/ol><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Research by The 5% Club in 2025 found that amongst 370 member companies surveyed: 65% expect their UK workforce to grow in the coming year, yet 62% consider economic and business confidence is deteriorating, with little evidence that emerging policy will significantly change that situation. Even organisations committed to &#8216;earn and learn&#8217; opportunities struggle with long-term planning, raising serious questions about the UK&#8217;s ability to meet the skills challenge.<\/p><p>As Mark Cameron, CEO of the 5% Club, put it in the organisation&#8217;s 2024-2025 Impact Report: &#8220;This Impact Report is not just a record of achievements; it is a rallying call. The challenge ahead is immense, but the rewards \u2013 a skilled, inclusive and thriving society \u2013 are worth every effort.&#8221;<\/p><p><strong>We want to hear from you.<\/strong> If your organisation is grappling with these questions, or if you can offer insights into how your company is tackling skills challenges, we&#8217;d be delighted to speak with you. We&#8217;re particularly interested to speak with organisations tackling the demand for skills in emerging industries or to deliver large investment projects.<\/p><p>* Learning &amp; Work Institute, ** CITB<br \/><br \/><\/p><p><em>We&#8217;re committed to exploring practical solutions to the UK&#8217;s skills crisis.
