This #InternationalWomensDay, we shine a spotlight on the incredible women who are reshaping the construction industry. From managers to skilled engineers, administration, and finance team. These women are pushing boundaries, breaking stereotypes, and proving that construction is for everyone. 🏗️💡 Let’s continue to inspire, encourage, and provide the resources necessary to help women succeed in this dynamic and rewarding field. The more we empower women, the stronger the construction industry will become. Here’s to the women who are not only building structures but also paving the way for a more inclusive, innovative, and diverse industry. 👷♀️💪 #IWD2025 #WomenInConstruction #GFWA #DiversityInConstruction #BreakingBarriers

Last week we had the pleasure of hosting senior management from Soletanche Bachy with visits to our sites and office. We want to extend our gratitude to Bernard Theron, Julien Landrot, and Arnaud Chapuis for their valuable contributions in discussing upcoming projects and focusing on how we, as part of the Soletanche Bachy Group, can continue to deliver exceptional work. A fantastic way to wrap up the visit was to come together with our sister companies, Brady Marine & Civil and Rob Carr Pty Ltd at Little Island Brewing Co. for some delicious appetizers and great conversations. 🍻 #Buildonus #Vinci #Futureprojectsloading 🚀
