Future career visions
Stonemason at work

There are several craft occupations to choose from, but how do you really know what would suit you best? We can help you decide. In this section we have provided you with an insight into the skills you need for each craft, information about what the job is actually like and what type of person the job is suitable for.

All of these jobs require you to be part of a wider team either in the company you work for, or more often, on the building site. So you must be willing to work and cooperate with your colleagues – good teamwork is essential.

Choose from the list on the right to learn about more specific aspects of the different crafts to help you decide what career path is best for you.

To find out more, download (PDF, 1.2MB) the NHTG Careers in Conservation and Restoration Brochure which contains information and guidance for careers both in the craft skills and for built heritage professionals.
