That’s a wrap on the 2026 BuildForce National Armed Forces Insight Day!
Hosted by Morgan Sindall Group plc, the day brought together military talent, industry leaders and employers with one shared purpose: creating real career opportunities for the Armed Forces community.
From discipline career chats to a powerful infrastructure panel led by MD Simon Smith, with industry insights from veterans Martyn Hodge, Matthew Currie and the wider Group, candidates gained a clear view of the breadth of opportunity within Morgan Sindall — from construction and fit-out to design, IT and beyond.
The energy in the room was outstanding.
Following a brilliant networking masterclass from London & Partners Pru Ashby and BuildForce Ambassador/AtkinsRéalis Darren Duery, our candidates stepped confidently into interviews, CV conversations and employer introductions — leaving with new contacts, live prospects and next steps.
Our Wellbeing Hub provided space to pause, reflect and access support — because career transition is about more than finding a role; it’s about feeling supported every step of the way.
A huge thank you to Morgan Sindall, our speakers, employers, Ambassadors, mentors, BuildForce and our wellbeing team for making the day such a success.
Most of all, thank you to the outstanding talent of our Armed Forces community. Your skills, resilience and potential continue to inspire.
You are not alone. BuildForce is always by your side.
