Committee
The SJCC is formed by representatives from each of the main construction professions. The committee currently consists of:
Builders
NFB
National Federation of Builders
The National Federation of Builders (NFB) represents small to medium-sized builders, contractors and house builders across England and Wales. As one of the UK’s longest standing trade bodies, it was created to represent the building profession and to promote conditions its members need to thrive and contribute to the economic success of the UK.
Its members range from the sole trader to large, multi-million pound construction companies, with turnover ranging from below £500,000 to £500 million. The federation provides expert advice, training, representation and business services for members so that they can comply with industry standards, excel in delivery, and grow successful businesses.

Architects
RIBA Suffolk
Royal Institute of British Architects, Suffolk Branch
The Branch works for its members as a cultural association promoting a deeper understanding and appreciation of Architecture through lectures, tours, and seminars. We open these to architects, young people and the general public.
The Branch is a forum for architects to discuss their shared ambitions, successes and concerns. We hold bi-monthly meetings around the county.
At the heart of our work is the promotion of ARCHITECTURE. The Branch works on behalf of its members to promote architects as enablers of architecture in the community and designers of outstanding buildings.

Building Services Engineers
CIBSE
Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers
Like all other engineered products buildings must do what they were designed to do. They do more than provide shelter from the heat and cold, or from sun wind and rain; they must also provide a safe and healthy environment in which people can live, work and achieve. Building Services Engineers are the people who make this happen. They creatively apply scientific principles to design the buildings we need.
