The Think Tank has picked up 9 shortlists at the 2026 Construction Marketing Awards, recognising our work with MILWAUKEE, Payapps, NBS, BSI and James Latham.
The Construction Marketing Awards celebrate the best marketing from across the construction and built environment sector. We’ve worked in this market for more than 30 years, so seeing work recognised by the CMAs still means a great deal, particularly when the shortlist reflects such a range of clients, challenges and ideas.

A word from the founder, Liam Bateman
“We’ve worked with construction clients for more than 30 years so it’s great to see that experience recognised with this shortlist. What I’m particularly pleased about is the range of work which has been shortlisted. These are very different campaigns, created for different challenges, and each one reflects a client who was willing to back a strong idea and a team determined to make it work.”
The winners of the 2026 Construction Marketing Awards will be announced on 19th November at the Bloomsbury Ballroom in London. The full shortlist is available on the Construction Marketing Awards website.
Congratulations to all the agencies, in-house teams and clients shortlisted. We’ll see you in November!
