22 | Fulton Hogan Central Otago REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT Career options in Central from page 20 It is also working on some major projects in the region, which will bring huge benefit to the community, says Anna. The Lake Dunston Water Supply project has seen Fulton Hogan complete new bores to draw water, construct reservoir tanks and install pipeline to carry the water from the bore site at Clyde to the treatment plant and on to the township of Clyde. Anna says the project is close to being finished with an expected completion of early next year. Another large project is the recently completed Shotover Country Borefield and Treatment Plant near Queenstown. This project saw Fulton Hogan construct a borefield and water treatment plant next to the existing bore in Shotover Country. It involved the installation of four new bores, a water treatment plant, supporting infrastructure and landscaping to build water treatment capacity and replace the existing infrastructure. “Improving infrastructure for the community is really important to Fulton Hogan and is something we take real pride in. Working for the community is what we are all about,” says Anna. This support extends beyond the physical job and sees Fulton Hogan Central providing sponsorships to a variety of community groups, events and organisations. It has even established a dedicated committee for this and has a pool of funds available each year for staff members to apply for. Anna says the aim is to support many community groups, and particularly those that its staff and their families are involved in to provide support to its staff as well. A good example of this multi benefit approach is the Alexandra Blossom Festival, which Fulton Hogan sponsors and also gifts tickets to staff and family as part of that. “Our aim at Fulton Hogan is to be a truly sustainable business,” says Anna. “That means not just in the practical sense but also ensuring we are looking after our staff, training them for the future, establishing long-term relationships with our clients, and ensuring we have a model that will be around for a long time to come.” With Fulton Hogan celebrating its 90th birthday next year it is a true indication that any decisions the company makes are for the long term and it will continue to operate successfully for many years to come. “Improving infrastructure for the community is really important to Fulton Hogan,” says Regional Manager Central Otago Anna Sinclair. Recent projects include the Shotover Country Borefield and Treatment Plant near Queenstown anf the Lake Dunstan Water Supply scheme.
