🏉 State of Origin: It's also a 'Battle of Bridges' 🌉 As we gear up for the next thrilling State of Origin series, the excitement isn't just limited to the field. This year, the [internal] rivalry extends to two iconic structures built by Seymour Whyte: Sydney Gateway’s Twin Arch Bridge (2024) and Brisbane’s Go Between Bridge (2010). Just as the State of Origin series brings out the best in our athletes, these bridges remind us of the incredible feats we can achieve through teamwork and determination. Whether you’re a proud supporter of the Blues or the Maroons, let's take a moment to appreciate the craftsmanship these structures represent. Here's to the people who crafted these monumental bridges and to the players who will give their all on the field. May the best team win and may the spirit of excellence continue to inspire us all. #seymourwhyte #ourpeopledomore #stateoforigin #rugby #sydneygateway #twinarchbridge #gobetweenbridge #engineeringmarvels #teamwork #vinci #johnholland #bouygues

At Seymour Whyte, we believe in making a difference. That’s why we give our team opportunities to engage in meaningful causes, giving them a purpose beyond their roles. Our commitment to volunteering is diverse and impactful, to name a few: 🏗️ Improving our industry: Our team volunteers with organisations like Wellness in Infrastructure and NAWIC QLD - National Association of Women in Construction to help improve our industry, advocating for better health, safety, and inclusivity in construction. 🌳 Environmental sustainability mission: From tree-planting and clean-up days to working groups focused on reducing our carbon footprint (Scopes 1 and 2) by 40% by 2030, we are dedicated to protecting and nurturing our environment. 🤝 Community impact: We’re giving back to our community, enhancing the quality of life either by mentoring Indigenous students, providing driving lessons for young learner drivers or by supporting Legacy Australia, A Brush with Kindness, BuildingPride and Bridges to Prosperity. 🌏Global outreach: In 2019, our team worked with Habitat for Humanity International to build a home in Fiji. This July, we are taking our team to Rwanda to build a bridge and empower the local community, showcasing our commitment to global development and support. 🎉Internal initiatives: Our Diversity & Inclusion, Reconciliation Action Plan, and Health & Wellness committees drive positive change within our company. Meanwhile, our incredible social clubs organise fun activities that foster team spirit and camaraderie. During National Volunteer Week 2024, we celebrate the dedication and passion of our team members who volunteer their time and energy to make a difference. Special mention to Tasfiah Imtiaz Tanha, awarded NSW Volunteer of the Year 2023 for volunteering over 90 hours with various organisations, including Sydney Children's Hospital Foundation, Common Purpose, and Cystic Fibrosis Community Care.
