Show Notes

Henry McDonald talks to Kevin McLoughlin MBE about how we can attract workers into the industry.

Kevin owns K&M McLoughlin Decorating, which has a turnover of £6m+ and a company that heavily invests in the apprenticeship scheme. In 2010 he created K&M Painting & Decorating College as his business needs were not being met by the local colleges.

In 2012, he helped to develop a CSR – Corporate Social Responsibility – program targeted on work skills, giving unemployed youngsters work experience whilst instilling in them basic work ethics.

In 2014 he was awarded an MBE for his services to training. Kevin is a National Apprenticeship Ambassador, he sits on the Islington Business Board and the LCCI Property & Construction Committee.

Peter Finn, Ireland’s favourite TV builder talks to Steve Randall about how getting into construction is a great way to travel.

Pete chats to Steve about how construction is an amazing path to take not only for getting work easily these days but also as a way to travel and work abroad in other countries. As always, Pete and Steve are fun and entertaining to listen to!
