Episode #079 | Geoff Vincent

Today we have a familiar face on the podcast - we sit down again with Geoff Vincent, founder & MD of GVR Solutions, this time as a solo guest, to talk about the reality of the UK construction industry right now.

From recapping our 140-mile cycle event from Buckingham Palace to Sizewell C Nuclear Power Station, to discussing the pressures facing tradespeople, mental health on site, life in recruitment, community & camaraderie and the future of construction.
