Construction Industry Brokerage Service for Stockport

Stockport Council is seeking a service provider to establish and operate a brokerage function that acts as a central coordination hub connecting construction contractors, education and training providers, and voluntary and community sector organisations. The brokerage will help construction contractors fulfil their social value commitments and work and skills obligations, while maximising employment and training opportunities for Stockport residents. The service should support the Council's economic growth agenda and inclusive employment priorities by facilitating skills development, apprenticeships, and local job creation within the construction sector. The successful provider will coordinate between all parties to identify opportunities, match contractors with training and employment providers, and track outcomes to ensure local communities benefit from construction projects and regeneration initiatives in the borough.
