CECA Scotland is the only representative body for Scotland’s civil engineering contractors. Representing over 80% of the industry in Scotland, our members ranging from large household names delivering major infrastructure projects to SME’s delivering improvements in their communities.

We provide our members with access to expertise on industry issues, employment law and health and safety; unrivalled training and events on issues that matter in our sector; access to industry networks in key sectors and collective lobbying on the policy issues that matter to the civil engineering sector, including procurement and infrastructure investment.

We also work to promote the vital work our members do to maintain and upgrade Scotland’s infrastructure network and to promote our industry to the next generation, through engagement with schools, colleges and Scotland’s skills agencies.
