Aggregate Industries

We recognise that to address the challenges of our fast moving markets and increased global complexity, diversity is a key. Growth, innovation and strong customer relationships all come from having employees that are proud to work for us. Our greatest teams have a mix of talent that embraces the power that human difference brings.

To underpin our commitment we have developed our Affinity Network Groups to encourage mutual responsibility across the core of our business –  to ensure we can attract and retain talent from every area of our society and continue to create a culture where every employee is respected, can be themselves and feel valued for their unique talents. We strongly believe everyone can and should bring their whole self to work, without the fear of being judged.  Our Affinity groups have a strong voice and help us shape our plans as we work together to build progress.

We’re at the front line of the construction and infrastructure industries, producing and supplying an array of construction materials. We’re home to everything from aggregates, asphalt, ready-mixed concrete and precast concrete products, and we also produce, import and supply construction materials, export aggregates and offer national road surfacing and contracting services. We’re also a proud member of Holcim; the leading global building materials and solutions company with around 90,000 employees in over 80 countries.

The scope for career progression and diversification is vast. As a multi-faceted, multi-discipline business with over 270 sites and around 3,900 dedicated employees in the UK, we recruit talented people across a broad spectrum of roles, including:

We are proud to base our business on our values of equality, flexibility and mutual respect. We foster an environment where everyone can forge their own path by offering training, support and flexibility to create balance inside and outside of work. We encourage our people to discuss their requirements with their line manager, who will do what’s possible to accommodate them.

The roles and opportunities we offer are diverse

We’re always looking for talented people that push the limits of what’s possible and who are willing to continue to learn and build a better tomorrow. Help us reinvent how the world builds with your fresh ideas, insights and perspectives.

Helping you achieve the balance you crave

We know that balancing work and home life is challenging. We’re proud to give new parents the time off they need to adjust to their new responsibilities (18 weeks full pay for new mums, alongside a generous return to work bonus and 2 weeks fully paid paternity leave for Dads).

We work hard to support flexible working where it’s possible, for example offering the option of working from alternative sites if they are more convenient and it works with the job. Ultimately, we will do what we can to make sure you can make the school run, visit an elderly relative in hospital or attend a parents evening at school.

Benefits & Rewards

This is where your hard work will get recognised and rewarded. We understand your personal benefits are an important part of working for Aggregate Industries, both for you and your close ones. We provide more than a salary, our rewards and benefits focus on your Health, Finances and Lifestyle ensuring that we really deliver value to all of our employees.
