It is also a bit of an addictive industry to be in . You never get to demolish the same building twice . So it keeps you on your toes , keeps it interesting and challenging .”
“ Our people have good opportunities to grow and gain a good , well rounded understanding of the construction and mining game . Our versatility means we are very well set up to cover multiple sectors , so it becomes about continuous improvement and development for our people .”
Citing the core values of safety , integrity , teamwork and excellence , Papalia is confident that these are at the heart of the business . He says , “ We make safety and sustainability the primary considerations in decision making . We want to have integrity in what we do , and in doing what we say we are going to do . One team , one goal with open communication from the ground up . Always looking at new and better ways of doing things , creating solutions . This allows for a successful project delivery that exceeds client expectations building ongoing relationships with them .”
