Talented construction professionals across Northern Ireland are being urged to step forward and be recognised at a glittering awards ceremony.
The prestigious event will be held at Croke Park in Dublin on 18 September 2025 and will be hosted by the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB).
CIOB hosted a launch event for the awards on 11 October at Tughans, The Ewart, Bedford Square, Belfast, giving aspiring winners the chance to network with fellow construction professionals before going head-to-head for one of the coveted titles. A similar event was held at Engineers Ireland, Clyde Road, Dublin at the same time.
Caroline Gumble, CEO at CIOB, said: “I am always delighted when this important industry has an opportunity to showcase the talent, hard work and achievements of the people creating and maintaining our built environment.
“The CIOB Ireland Awards is a great platform for the incredible things industry professionals are doing and I’m very much looking forward to hearing all those stories.
“Nothing in construction happens in isolation so I encourage everyone working in the built environment sector to nominate the colleagues who most deserve recognition.”
Councillor Micky Murray, the Lord Mayor of Belfast, oversaw the launch ceremony as categories covering Client of the Year, Team of the Year, Rising Star and Sustainability Award were officially opened for nominations.
Cllr Murray said: “The CIOB Awards Ireland are a fantastic opportunity to highlight the remarkable talent and innovation driving Northern Ireland’s construction sector.
“It’s an honour to attend this celebration of excellence, and I encourage everyone to put forward their nominations and highlight the outstanding achievements within our built environment.
“Recognising the talented individuals who help shape Northern Ireland’s infrastructure is crucial, as they play a vital role in creating spaces and places that enhance our communities and support our future growth.”
Nominations are now open and aspiring winners can enter their submissions online, with categories covering Client of the Year, Team of the Year, and Rising Star.
Awards are open to both members of CIOB and non-members and CIOB is urging as many construction professionals as possible to put their names forward.
