10 MEA MARKETS / September 2017 “At Six Construct, we believe in a company that operates as one team. One that is focused on sustainable growth, building on leverage that has been created as a result of excellent client relationships, added value delivery in existing and new markets. Above all, creating a fully integrated solution for the client, whilst respecting safety and the environment. “One thing we are keen to use is technology and innovation within our industry. We strongly believe that this is the way to stay ahead of the competition.” When discussing what differentiates Six Construct from their competitors, marking them out as the best possible option for their clients, Pierre highlights that the company have been present in the region for more than 50 years – this has given them an extraordinary reputation. “One of our competitive advantages is our capability to deliver iconic projects. Moreover, we have now developed financing solutions to help clients funding their assets via our export credit agency, and this has already demonstrated that it can give a competitive edge, especially during financially challenging periods.” Behind every successful company, is a hard-working, dedicated passionate workforce who helps to make the business what it is. For Six Construct, Pierre praises the hardworking staff at the company and informs us of the approach taken when hiring staff and how they attract the best talent in the industry. “Here at Six Construct, we have a strong family culture, which in turn creates loyalty with our staff. Our employees’ retention rate is very high with employees continuing their long service that can go up to 30, 35 and even 40 years. “When hiring new staff, we seek out individuals who are ambitious, with a strong drive and who hold a sense of an entrepreneurial spirit. We look for innovative ideas, and individuals who are looking to grow with the company. “How we attract the best talent in the industry to the company is our values, the employment stability, prestigious/landmark projects that we undertake. Another quality is the opportunity to work in a highly experienced and professional environment that can contribute to gaining a very rich career path.” Looking ahead, Pierre expects there to be more and more public private partnerships in the region. This is something the company have been ready for since they already have a public private partnership division that has proven to be very efficient and customer driven. As for what the future holds, Pierre cannot predict the future but believes Six Construct will continue growing and developing. “Unfortunately, I do not have a crystal ball, but the only certainty is that we are working hard to grow the company and take it to new heights.”
