Looking for an opportunity to earn while you learn and gain the qualifications needed to start a successful career in the construction industry?
Following a successful initial recruitment campaign resulting in over 150 placements, LABC, the organisation that represents all local authority building control teams in England and Wales, is recruiting additional trainees to join their LABC Academy, starting in December 2025.
The LABC Academy Programme is a two-year programme that provides the opportunity to learn on the job working towards level 4 and level 5 diplomas in building control surveying whilst gaining on-the-job experience with a local authority building control department.
Throughout the programme you'll earn a competitive salary and on completion you'll have the skills, qualifications and experience required to become a Registered Building Inspector as well as the opportunity to progress to become a fully qualified Chartered Surveyor or Building Engineer.
As a Trainee Building Inspector, you’ll assist in delivering a range of surveying activities relating to building control, including working with designers and contractors to achieve compliance with building regulations, doing inspections of building work, assisting in technical investigations and responding to dangerous structure call outs.
Successful candidates will be employed by LABC but be based in a local authority to allow you to gain practical experience.
