Friday was a pretty special day for us at UINZ as we celebrated not one, but two 10-Year Long Service Awards. 🏆

Gordon Lacey and Finnbar McNab both joined UINZ in September 2016, right around the time our growth as a business really started to take shape.

Over the past decade, Gordon and Finnbar have both played a big part in the growth and success of UINZ. They’ve been there through plenty of changes, challenges, big projects and milestones, and we’re extremely proud to still have them as part of the UINZ family 10 years later.

To recognise the milestone, Gordon and Finnbar were each presented with a 10-Year Service Trophy, Certificate, personalised thank-you letter from the business owners, and $5,000 as a small way of recognising their loyalty and contribution to UINZ over the past decade.

Ten years with one business is a milestone worth celebrating, and having two of our team reach it at the same time makes it even more special.

Thank you, Gordon and Finnbar, for everything you’ve contributed over the past 10 years.

We’re proud to celebrate this milestone with you both and hopefully there are plenty more years and milestones still to come. 🍻

Future Focused | Culture Driven

One of our Trenchless crews are well into it at the Te Rāhui Solar Farm near Taupō for our friends at All Energy Australia.

Matt and his team have got the Vermeer D40x55 doing what it does best — punching HDD shots beneath culturally protected wetland areas and getting kilometres of duct underground with minimal disturbance to the land above.

With PolyWeld Nz Ltd keeping the duct strings rolling and the trenchless boys keeping the drill turning, there’s plenty happening out here.

We’ll be on the ground through until late September, so still a fair bit of drilling ahead of us.

Pretty bloody cool project, awesome part of the country and exactly the sort of work our Trenchless team loves getting stuck into. 👊

We couldn't find planning software built for how a civil crew actually works.
So we built our own. 🙌

Meet the UINZ Resource Board 📅 — every crew, every machine, every job on one live board. 👷 🚛 🛠️

Our office plans the week. Our PMs push the day's task and reminders straight to the crews. And every site team opens their phone to a clear 3-week lookahead: what's on, and what to take.

No more whiteboards. No more "who's got the drill rig?" No more guessing what's coming next week.

Built by contractors, for contractors — because nobody understands what's in the trench like the people standing in it.

Bloody proud of this one.

A great mid-winter social event for the UINZ Group tonight with our annual tenpin Full Montys at Full Monty’s. 🎳

It’s been a while between social events, but in an industry as challenging as ours, it’s important to take a step back, enjoy a laugh, and recognise the hard work our team puts in every day. The people around you are what make a business great.

With the inaugural competition kicking off back in 2018, tonight saw our first-ever tie, with two of our managers sharing the UINZ Bowling Trophy.

Congratulations to Ryan and Jeff on taking out the win! 🏆
