The second instalment of Good Employer Guide Live has been confirmed for 2026. 

Taking place at a new venue – the Savoy Hotel on The Strand – on 5 March, the event will be run by Building and Housing Today in collaboration with sister title Building Design.  

This year’s event is expanding to include dedicated content from both Building and Housing Today, offering even more insight and debate across the entire built environment sector. 

The inaugural event, held in March 2025, attracted more than 150 professionals to discuss best practice on skills development, workplace concerns and equality within the industry.

As part of our commitment to championing excellence, this event will once again shine a spotlight on those organisations leading the way inclusive supportive and forward-thinking workplaces. 

The agenda for the event, which is sponsored by Gleeds and RLB, will be announced closer to the event.
