Best practice is at the heart of everything CEW advocates in Welsh construction and showcased in our Demonstration & Exemplar programme. Do you have what it takes to get involved and champion best practice?

Telling stories about how the best projects are completed is always great to hear and be involved with, but best practice is about more than just the projects that went well from the beginning. To learn best practice and share properly so that we all benefit we have to drill down deeper to find out how problems were overcome and then celebrate that success. That is what lies at the heart of our successful Demonstration & Exemplar Programmes.

When CEW began and evolved from the original ideas of Building the Team and Rethinking Construction the concept of demonstrating excellence and sharing the learning from a whole range of construction projects was born. That core element of our work has never stopped, never ceased in momentum and right now, the Exemplar Programme consists of almost 30 projects that represent a cumulative value of £600m comprising housing, health, highways, commercial and education sectors.

That’s a lot of best practice waiting to be shared, learned and then used to educate, inform, influence and shape future decision making.

That’s why the Demonstration & Exemplar Programme remains such a vital part of CEW work. It is also why we are looking for a new member of the CEW team to continue its success. That candidate is going to have to show a commitment to the values of best practice, collaborative working and the concept of disseminating great ideas and learning. These principles are at the heart of what we do. If you think you can demonstrate these traits and have what it takes to drive positive change in Welsh construction, then download the job description here.
