The Civil Contractors Federation (CCF) is the member based representative body of civil engineering contractors in Australia, providing assistance and expertise in contractor development and industry issues. Nationally we represent approximately 2000 small, medium and large sized contractors who in turn employ more than 40,000 people. Members are involved in a variety of projects and activities including the development and maintenance of civil infrastructure such as roads, bridges, dams, wharves, commercial and housing land development. The CCF is governed by a national board who set the strategic direction of the Federation and act as the policy making group for the organisation. Day-to-day administration of the National Office is overseen by the Chief Executive Officer (National). A network of branch offices is located in every state and territory. Each branch has an elected branch board made up of contractor members who provide governance and strategic direction and a CEO who is responsible for the operations and service delivery of the branch. The ongoing aim is to improve the civil construction industry, as well provide a unified voice for civil contractors to all three levels of government.
