North Construction & Building values its strong partnership with HRATA and was a proud sponsor of this year's 2019 NSW Training Awards Hunter Region. This local employee-owned commercial construction company has an unwavering commitment to excellence and the advancement of people. North truly does business differently. "We are working hard to be not only the builder of choice throughout our delivery regions, but also the employer of choice as well," North Managing Director Matthew Cook said. "To our purpose, in everything we do, we are building trust with our clients, our subcontractors, our staff, and in our community. "North has been and always will be heavily invested in the development of people and long-term careers. Good people and strong relationships, aligned to our values are a foundation of the company." With approximately 95 full-time staff across offices in Newcastle and Tuggerah, North provides a training and development environment in sync with the company's strategic direction. This includes a history of investing in work placements, trade apprenticeships and cadetships which currently makes up 25% of North employees and contributes to the pool of future leaders while strengthening the overall construction industry. "Great vocational education and training programs are a main driver of our success and longevity in the industry," Mr Cook said. "I believe that by developing our employees we will, by default, improve our client relationships, advance our project outcomes and maintain our positive culture as we grow." North has five values that drive the behaviour and culture within the company: trust, excellence, respect, relational and fun. When you look around the business, it's not hard to find proof that North's values are much more than just words. Testament to this is the fact that more than 50% of all North's employees have only ever worked for the company in addition to North being named Australian Medium Employer of the Year at the 2018 Australian Training Awards. "In two words ... We care," Cook said. Founded in 1987, North is the largest locally owned and operated commercial construction business on the Central Coast - specialising in the education, health, hospitality and aged care sectors. By leveraging a mix of personalised service and high quality outcomes, combined with putting their values front and centre, North continue to lead the way toward higher accountability amongst players in the space and further reinforce being one of the most trusted builders throughout the Hunter Valley, Newcastle and Central Coast regions.
