Life at VGC
Our people are proud to work here. We are a friendly bunch who support each other and dig deep to go the extra mile for our colleagues, clients, candidates and the communities that we work in.
We continually strive to be a force for good in the construction sector, but we also have fun along the way – raising money for charities close to our hearts, to recognising and supporting mental health and wellbeing of our friends and colleagues and having fun social events throughout the year.
Fairness, inclusion and respect (FIR)
We are fully committed to creating an environment where everyone can achieve their potential. Our industry benefits from being incredibly diverse, bringing together individuals with differing backgrounds, skills, and experiences. FIR ensures that individuals are treated fairly, that their voices are heard, and they are respected for their unique perspectives. A culture of fairness inclusion and respect ensures we are attracting the best talent into the industry, fostering teamwork and collaboration, and ultimately ensuring the successful delivery of our work.
We remove barriers to accessing employment and development activities, support people from under-represented groups to access opportunities, and promote equality of opportunity to all who work with and for us. We encourage everyone to share their expertise and support under-represented groups through regular volunteering activities.
In order to continue to improve we have a team of FIR ambassadors meet regularly to plan out training events, communications and celebrations of culture.
VGC received the Inspiring Change award for ‘Inspiring Change in the Community’, at the Fairness, Inclusion & Respect Programme awards, recognising our recruitment, onboarding, and retention practices across all four sections of HS2.
