Here, Marek outlines his presidential theme, Innovate, Integrate, Inspire, while highlighting the important role civil engineering surveyors play and the benefits of CICES membership<\/h2>\n<p>As I begin my term as CICES president, an exceptional honour, I do so with a strong sense of optimism about the future of our profession.<\/p>\n<p>I shared that optimism when addressing members at the recent CICES Annual Dinner in Bristol in September.<\/p>\n<p>With an eye on the future, I have chosen Innovate, Integrate and Inspire as the theme for my presidential year, reflecting my commitment to driving progress, strengthening collaboration and encouraging the next generation of professionals.<\/p>\n<h3>Inspire<\/h3>\n<p>Inspire forms one of the key elements of my presidential theme because, as a sector, we are facing a major skills shortage.<\/p>\n<p>According to the RICS <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rics.org\/news-insights\/current-topics-campaigns\/rics-skills-report\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">surveying skills report<\/a> published in 2025, quantity surveying and construction are among the surveying disciplines experiencing the greatest capacity pressures from skills shortages, with 68% of respondents in the sector reporting that skills gaps are reducing work capacity.<\/p>\n<p>We have an opportunity to act by inspiring young people and career changers to consider civil engineering surveying and ensure they have access to the guidance and mentoring they need through institutions such as CICES.<\/p>\n<p>It was very positive over the summer to see Prime Minister Andy Burnham announce <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/news\/pm-from-today-britain-will-value-the-hard-hat-as-much-as-the-graduation-cap\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">proposed reforms<\/a> that will enable 14-year-olds to get early access to technical education, skills training, work experience and connections with employers.<\/p>\n<p>Giving exposure to teenagers to different work environments, such as civil engineering surveying, is vital to inspire them to seek opportunities in potential careers that they might never have previously considered.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully the proposed work experience reforms will complement the investments we are already making to engage young people.<\/p>\n<p>Education outreach has long been a priority for CICES. Recognising its importance, the institution appointed its first education outreach manager last year to help drive this vital work forward and raise awareness of the profession among the next generation.<\/p>\n<p>My own journey into the profession illustrates the importance of raising awareness of these opportunities. Like many school leavers, I had little certainty about what I wanted to do next. It was only after a conversation with a prospective university tutor about civil engineering that my interest was sparked, and I began to appreciate the breadth of careers available.<\/p>\n<p>Civil engineering surveying can provide a rewarding, exciting career that can take one across the globe, and it\u2019s vital that more young people are aware of this.<\/p>\n<h3>Innovate and Integrate<\/h3>\n<p>However, attracting talented people into the profession is only part of the challenge. We must also ensure that the industry they enter continues to evolve, embrace new ways of working and equip professionals with the skills needed for the future.<\/p>\n<p>This is precisely why innovation and integration form the other two pillars of my presidential theme.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout my career, CICES and other professional bodies have played an important role in my professional development, providing opportunities to connect with fellow professionals, expand my knowledge, develop new skills and contribute to initiatives that drive innovation and positive change across the industry. I was also gratified to support the development of CICES\u2019 digital competencies, helping to ensure the institution keeps pace with the growing importance of digital skills.<\/p>\n<p>Being part of a strong professional community has enriched my career, and I would encourage others to take advantage of the opportunities, support and gain the sense of belonging that CICES membership can provide.<\/p>\n<p>Civil engineering surveying is already undergoing significant change, driven by advances in digital technologies, data management, automation and the potential of AI. To make the most of these opportunities, we need not only a commitment to embracing innovation, but also greater integration and collaboration across the entire project lifecycle.<\/p>\n<p>During a BBC interview in September, Angela Rayner, secretary of state for housing, communities and local government, suggested there is only a \u201cslim chance\u201d of the government\u2019s target to build 1.5m homes in England being met by the next election.<\/p>\n<p>While a range of factors are contributing to this challenge, the need for greater adoption of innovative construction methods, digital technologies and stronger integration between planners, developers, contractors and investors remains clear. By embracing innovation and working more collaboratively, we can help improve efficiency, productivity and delivery across the built environment.<\/p>\n<p>As I start my presidential term, I wish to thank CICES immediate past-president Alex Pearsall, whose theme of Shaping the Future of Construction complemented my beliefs, and also our predecessors, many of whom also championed the need to increase awareness of civil engineering surveying and attract new entrants.<\/p>\n<p>I would encourage all those practising or considering a career in construction to explore the opportunities that civil engineering surveying presents, to engage with CICES, and play an active role in shaping the future of our industry.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marek Suchocki FCInstCES became president of the Chartered Institution of Civil Engineering Surveyors (CICES) on 2 September 2026.
