Why This Summit Matters
Australia’s bricklaying industry is losing skilled business owners faster than any other part of construction. Not because of workmanship – but because most were never taught the business side of the trade.
Brickies have been trapped by builder set rates, thin margins, and unpaid invoices. The Summit exists to change that. Together we’ll help every bricklayer take back control of their rates, profits, and future.
Attendees will learn how to:
Calculate true running costs and track productivity
Negotiate sustainable contract rates with confidence
Protect themselves legally with clear contracts
This event is about more than survival, it’s about building a stronger, smarter, and more secure trade.
Guest Speakers
Some of the most successful bricklaying business owners in Australia
Sales and Marketing expert Anna Osherov
Australias leading Apprentice Employment experts
Andrew Douglas - One of Australias Leading Constructon Workplace Lawyers
Live Q&A question time with Australias industry leaders
This event is about more than survival, it’s about building a stronger, smarter, and more secure trade.
A Collective Mission for Change
Bricklayers have waited decades for a genuine national voice. The Brickies Network is that voice – and this Summit is where our unity begins.
It's said that "bricklayers are their own worst enamy" It's said that "bricklayers don't stick together" and will undercut each other at the drop of a hat.
So, let prove them all wrong!
When we stand together:
Bricklayers build sustainable businesses
Suppliers gain loyal customers
The whole industry grows stronger
Your Rates. Your Profit. Your Future. Together.
Be Part of the Movement
The National Bricklayers Summit 2026 will redefine what it means to be a professional bricklayer in Australia.
Join us to create a future where bricklayers control their own rates, protect their profits, and shape the industry – together.
