Craig Larkins is a rock star. He’s the face (and often the voice) behind some of B.C.’s most anticipated construction industry events, bringing wit, charm, and a steady hand when the pressure is on and the room is full. What makes Craig stand out is the mix: he can work a crowd, host a big stage, and then turn around and do the behind-the-scenes grind that makes advocacy actually move. His journalism roots have helped him build real trust and access inside B.C. government — the kind that gets high-ranking officials and major political candidates to sit down, take questions, and give the industry straight answers. That’s not just good programming; that’s influence. Voters also pointed to the craft most people don’t see. Beyond hosting The Builders’ Bench, Craig is often the one scripting, editing, and shaping the story arcs himself — basically a one-man production studio.
