Meet Channing
HR Administrator
Why do you enjoy working at Fulton Hogan?
The first thing I noticed when I started my role with Fulton Hogan was the welcoming atmosphere and the ongoing support from everyone to help me find my feet. The people I work with are a big part of why I love coming into work every day. My team has provided me with endless opportunities for on-the-job learning and growth and have guided me every step of the way. They have also inspired me to start my tertiary studies in Human Resource Management at Griffith University studying a Bachelor of Business – HR Management this year. I wouldn’t be where I am in my career if not for the endless support from my team and the greater Fulton Hogan business.
What is the coolest thing about your job?
Working in the HR space gave me a fast tracked opportunity to meet and know all of my colleagues in the office and out on our Project sites. I love that my role gives me the chance to interact with people in different roles and various stages of their lives each day. It has definitely opened my eyes, viewing how individual departments come together as a business and the way it all functions together as a whole. Furthermore, as a HR professional, I love to analyse each person/team’s contributions to common organisational goals.
What advise can you give school leavers looking to enter into the workforce?
Before joining Fulton Hogan, I didn’t know what I wanted to pursue in terms of a career and now I can clearly see my career path within Fulton Hogan. My team has inspired me to pursue a career in HR, which has led me to further my studies. Take every opportunity presented to you in your chosen workplace when presented with the choice. You never know where it may lead you in work and life.
Meet Iyasu
Engineering Cadet
Iyasu’s journey to Fulton Hogan started back in 2017, when he came to Australia to participate in a business meeting with members of the Ethiopian community. However, after arriving in Australia for the meeting, the political situation in Ethiopia changed during civil unrest and anti-government protests. Iyasu made the decision to apply for refugee status because he felt his life would be in jeopardy if he returned home.
“I had no intention of staying in Australia when I arrived here. I had little support networks to begin with. I felt alone, worried and anxious for the people I had left at home, but I knew that I couldn’t return to Ethiopia. Immediately I started looking for a job, but one of the biggest barriers was employment – everyone wanted local experience.”
With a background in construction and project management in his home country, Iyasu knew he wanted to work in the construction industry in Australia. With the support of the local community and humanitarian organisations that Fulton Hogan partner with to support qualified asylum seekers and refugee Engineers, Iyasu secured an 18-month cadetship in 2020 on the Level Crossing Removal Project.
Iyasu is now employed as an Engineering Cadet in Melbourne and receiving valuable on-the-job training, mentoring and practical local experience by working on major transport infrastructure projects.
“I am fortunate and happy to be employed at Fulton Hogan, because working for the company has increased my capacity and my experience. I have loved my project ‘family’ and the support they have brought me. I can’t wait to keep growing and taking advantage of the opportunities that life in Australia and Fulton Hogan have given me!”
