Master Builders Victoria (MBV) has again been centre-stage in the news this week, proactively engaging the media to publicly communicate our position on the latest critical developments for the industry. We have convened a meeting tomorrow with industry stakeholders and Minister Allan to continue discussions about our industry's re-opening.

MBV CEO Rebecca Casson has appeared in a variety of radio, television, print, and online articles, including an interview yesterday on 3AW radio, regarding the Government mandated industry shutdown. To listen to the interview click here.

MBV's ‘Get the Jab Done’ campaign has gained support from across the building and construction sector.

Victoria’s 320,000 building and construction workers have been urged to ‘get the jab done’ as part of a large industry-led vaccination campaign. This has attracted plenty of media interest.

An extensive billboard campaign, together with co-branded social media material including videos featuring personalised messaging from members, mailouts, and other communications has been arranged as part of the drive.

Here is a quick sample of some of our recent media activity.
