Pros
In my role at Oldcastle APG as a regional operational performance & quality professional, I have found a forever home that embodies the essence of operational and personal excellence. Having spent a decade in the industry with a major competitor prior to joining Oldcastle through the Management Development Program, the transition marked the most pivotal moment in my career.
The decision to move to Oldcastle has proven to be the best career choice I have ever made. Unlike my previous experience, where mentorship and integrity was unfortunately scarce, here I have thrived under the guidance of strong leadership and a company culture deeply rooted in values such as safety, personal and professional character, innovation, inclusion & diversity. These values are not just words on a wall or a website; they are ingrained in the actions and beliefs of every leader within the organization.
The emphasis on personal and professional growth at Oldcastle has been instrumental in my development. The alignment of my aspirations with the company's needs has provided me with a clear path for growth and advancement. Beit vertical, lateral or cross departmentally, Oldcastle APG allows and encourages its employees to determine their career path. I have come to understand and experience firsthand how impactful strong leadership, mentorship and a supportive people focused environment can be in shaping organizational success and workforce commitment.
Every day, I am reminded of the difference people can make within an organization. The commitment of Oldcastle's leadership to invest in their employees and foster a culture of excellence is truly honorable. This dedication has not only enhanced my professional acumen and skillsets but has also instilled a sense of unwavering loyalty and gratitude towards Oldcastle.
My experience at Oldcastle APG has been nothing short of transformative. The decision to take a leap of faith and join this organization has proven to be both challenging and rewarding. I am proud to be a part of a company that not only embraces strong values but also lives by them, making a tangible difference in the lives of its employees and the success of the business.
