Completing the group of long service employees is Michael Walker, bricklayer with Robertson Construction Northern, who is celebrating 25 years with the business. During that time, he has contributed to housing developments, military projects, commercial buildings and industrial facilities.

Sir Bill Robertson, founder, Robertson Group, said: “It is a special occasion to come together and recognise six colleagues who have dedicated so many years to Robertson. Through their work, they have not only helped deliver projects and grow our business, but have also strengthened the culture, reputation and values that have made Robertson what it is today.

“Particularly rewarding is hearing how many have gone on to develop the next generation after benefiting from that same encouragement themselves. Their legacy can be seen in the people they have mentored, communities they have served and the high-quality projects they have delivered. On behalf of everyone at Robertson, thank you and congratulations to each one of you.”
