TPG went behind the scenes to get a look at one of Winnipeg’s biggest projects 👀🦺

We joined the Young Construction Leaders of Manitoba yesterday for a tour of the new Healthcare Centre of Excellence project right here downtown!

Our team drives past this project every day on the way to work, so it was pretty cool to get a closer look inside.

Skill can be developed.
Will has to come from within.

Krystyn MacKinnon, Principal at Colliers Project Leaders, talks about how important it is to figure out whether someone is struggling because they need more training or because the motivation just isn’t there.

Last week we watched a company lose a great candidate over $5,000.
Not because they couldn't afford it.
Because they thought he'd take less to prove himself.

People aren't just a number on a budget.
The first offer you make says a lot.

Cutting the offer by $5K cost them the hire.
That math never works.

🚨 The construction industry is about to lose a quarter-million experienced workers 🚨

Over 270,000 construction workers are expected to retire over the next 10 years.
Even with new people entering the trades, there still won't be enough skilled workers to meet demand.

What does that mean for you?
🔨 Skilled workers are in demand
💰 More job opportunities
👷 Companies are hiring
📈 It's a great time to build a career in construction

Whether you're building your career or building your crew, that's what we do.

Think a trade tops out on the tools?
Look where it actually leads 👀

As a site Superintendent in Manitoba, you'd make around $101,000
And in places where demand is higher, experienced supers are pulling in $190,000–200,000+

The trades pay well and they keep paying as you move up!

A construction owner sent us a cease-and-desist.
6 months later, he was hiring us.

A few years ago TPG's founder, Justis Pederson, recruited a superintendent away from a company.
On his way out, the superintendent dropped Justis' name.

The owner was furious.
A week later, a cease-and-desist letter showed up.
He's now one of our largest clients.
