The commercial construction industry is facing a growing challenge in 2026: finding the right talent at the right time.

Across major projects, many firms are competing for the same pool of project managers, estimators, and cost managers. But the real issue isn’t just a shortage of people. It is that some of the best talent remains hidden or overlooked.

In the FIRST EDITION of Powerstaff Construction Insider, we explore:
• Why traditional hiring approaches are struggling in commercial construction.
• Where high-performing candidates are actually coming from.
• Practical strategies companies can use to access hidden talent pools.
• How to promote your unique hiring proposition to prospective candidates.
• How to better leverage your own team to attract talent.
The construction workforce landscape is evolving quickly. Companies that adapt their hiring strategies will gain a major advantage.

If you work in commercial construction, whether hiring teams or building your career, these insights are worth understanding.

Insights. Trends. Talent. Made for construction.
