Our People and Careers.

At AKD we understand that it is people who have made our business what it is today and will continue to do so in the future.

We believe that with the right people, we can achieve what we set out to do and by right we mean not only people with qualifications and technical skills, but people who bring diversity, passion, attitude and care to our organisation. We value good people!

Our company culture values collaboration and showing initiative and we believe that our best organisational and personal outcomes will come from operating as a team with collective responsibility.

Safety is paramount and forms the basis of everything we do; “no dollar, no cubic metre of production, no activity, is worth putting our people at risk or injuring them” CEO Shane Vicary.

AKD is continually growing and evolving, and this challenges us as a business to consider the best ways to provide learning, development and career opportunities for our people.

We pride ourselves on being a place where people want to work, and one of the reasons for this is because we actively provide and promote development opportunities for our whole team. Providing development opportunities for our people forms part of our overall company purpose.

AKD invests in our employees’ future by structuring development and training opportunities to cater for a wide range of people and their preferences. Learning and development is for everyone, and we provide opportunities from entry level to experienced and everything in between.
