Jobs and Brisbane 2032 Olympic Games

August 31, 2021

At Construction-Recruitment we service Australia wide, but our humble beginnings were in Brisbane, so the news that Brisbane secured the 2032 Olympic Games was monumental for our team.

Not only will the Games put Brisbane on the global map, but the infrastructure plans include construction of several new facilities over the next 11 years and Brisbane will benefit from the construction of some exciting new developments.

We expect a busy period in recruitment.

Seven new facilities were proposed on Brisbane’s Olympic Games Bid. These facilities will be predominantly used for marquee events such as swimming and athletics and include:-

• 14,000 bed Olympic main athletes’ village

• Brisbane Arena for swimming and water polo

• Indoor sports Centre for basketball

• Boxing Centre at Moreton Bay

• Also exciting is a $1 billion redevelopment of the historic Gabba cricket stadium that will see the current stadium replaced with a 50,000-seat stadium.

In the Redlands alone where we hang out, it is anticipated that 150 new jobs in construction will be sustained through the building and delivery of the adventure sports precinct including the Olympic Whitewater Centre with an annual contribution of $52 million to the local economy.

When commenting on the news. The Australian Constructors Association CEO Jon Davies has said:

“The opportunity is not just about delivering the Olympic Games to time and cost. The Olympics really gives us the chance to think bit and to create a new legacy that will build Queensland’s workforce capability and capacity and innovation.

Let’s set skills legacy targets and unleash innovation so we not only deliver high-quality infrastructure, but set the construction industry on a more sustainable path.”
