Unhooked shortlisted for six Construction Marketing Awards
We’re excited to announce that Unhooked Communications has been shortlisted for six Construction Marketing Awards (CMAs) 2026, recognising our agency, as well as strategic work and campaigns with Tradesman Saver and Häfele UK.
Our six shortlist places are:
- Best Small Agency, Unhooked Communications
- Strategic Planning and Management, with Tradesman Saver
- Best use of Press and Press Relations, with Tradesman Saver
- Best use of AI, with Tradesman Saver
- Best use of Events and Live Marketing, with Häfele UK
- Best Integrated Campaign, with Häfele UK
It’s a fantastic result for the Unhooked team and our clients, and one we’re especially proud of because of the standing the Construction Marketing Awards have within our industry.
About the Construction Marketing Awards
The Construction Marketing Awards celebrate the best marketing across the construction and built environment sector, recognising campaigns, teams and individuals delivering genuine impact.
Now in their 26th year, the awards span 21 categories covering areas including strategy, PR, integrated campaigns, events, brand, AI and marketing technology. They are also endorsed by the Chartered Institute of Marketing Construction Industry Group.
What makes the CMAs particularly meaningful is the specialist nature of the judging. Entries are assessed by senior, client-side marketing leaders from across the built environment. This means the work is being recognised by people who understand both marketing best practice and the realities of communicating within the construction and built environment sector.
Recognising work across PR, strategy, AI and experiential campaigns
We’re really pleased with the breadth of this year’s shortlist.
Our work with Tradesman Saver has been recognised across strategic planning, PR and AI, reflecting the way our work with the specialist insurance brand has moved beyond traditional media relations to combine insight, communications strategy, digital visibility and new approaches to how brands are discovered through AI search.
Meanwhile, in collaboration with Häfele UK, we’ve been shortlisted for both Best use of Events and Live Marketing and Best Integrated Campaign, recognising campaigns that bring together PR, content, partnerships, events and wider marketing activity to engage with audiences.
Alongside the campaign nominations, being shortlisted for Best Small Agency is brilliant recognition of the wider Unhooked team, the clients who trust us, and the work we’ve built together.
Huge thanks and well done to everyone involved.
The winners will be announced at the Construction Marketing Awards gala dinner on Thursday 19 November 2026 at the Bloomsbury Ballroom in London. Fingers crossed for November!
