From Scrums to Construction: Rugby Stars Build a Winning Team in Construction
By Jill Dando News
Former Rugby Pros Jake and Josh Caulfield Trade Tackles for Tools in Launch of Evolution Developments
When you think of professional rugby players, grit, discipline, and teamwork come to mind—qualities that Jake and Josh Caulfield are now channeling into their ambitious new venture.
The dynamic brother duo has swapped scrums for construction, launching Evolution Developments, a cutting-edge construction, maintenance, and development firm based in the South West of England.
Drawing on their shared history of teamwork and tenacity, Jake and Josh aim to bring the same high standards that defined their rugby careers to the world of construction.
Jake Caulfield, 32, brings a wealth of leadership experience to the table.
After retiring from professional rugby, Jake carved out a highly successful career in education, holding senior leadership roles in Cheddar and contributing to schools across Bridgwater, Weston-super-Mare, and Burnham-on-Sea.
Now, as the Managing Director of Evolution Developments, he’s set to use his skills in strategy and management to build a business grounded in quality and trust.
Meanwhile, 27-year-old Josh Caulfield, a star with the Bristol Bears and former London Irish and England international player, is balancing his active rugby career with his role as co-founder.
His continued involvement in professional sports demonstrates the work ethic and drive he brings to the company.
“Rugby taught us how to work as a team, overcome challenges, and always aim for excellence,” said Jake.
“We’re taking that same approach into Evolution Developments. Whether we’re building homes, renovating spaces, or tackling large-scale commercial projects, we’re committed to creating structures and communities that stand the test of time.”
Their venture is not just a passion project but a family affair. The brothers are supported by their father, a construction veteran with 45 years of industry experience.
Together, the Caulfield’s bring a unique combination of fresh perspective and seasoned expertise to their clients.
Based in Weston-super-Mare, where the brothers grew up and attended Priory School, Evolution Developments offers a comprehensive suite of services. From modular builds and renovations to plumbing, electrical work, and maintenance contracts, their mission is clear: to provide superior quality with a customer-first ethos.
“Josh and I have had rewarding careers in rugby and education, but now it’s about channeling that passion into helping people. We want to create spaces where communities and families can thrive,” Jake added.
The brothers’ commitment to detail and quality assurance sets them apart in a competitive industry.
Whether you’re renovating your dream home or managing a commercial project, Evolution Developments promises to deliver results that exceed expectations.
From rugby pitches to building sites, Jake and Josh Caulfield are proving that teamwork, discipline, and a winning mindset can pave the way for success in any field.
