🏎️💨

Our first outing of the season at Brands Hatch Circuit on 24th May, competing as guests in the Classic Car Club Championship, proved to be an eventful one for the Walker Construction-sponsored Mini.

In challenging temperatures, Chris Brown of ATW Motorsport once again took the wheel and delivered a fantastic performance!

A snapped alternator belt during qualifying, led to a frantic repair effort before race one. Despite starting both races from the back of the grid, the team fought through the field to secure an impressive 3rd place in class in both races.

A huge thank you to everyone involved for their hard work and determination. We’re looking forward to returning to Brands Hatch in August and building on this strong start to the season.

See you at Brands Hatch in August! 👋

📢 Announcement: a new strategic partnership with Smas Worksafe, a leading provider of Safety Schemes in Procurement (SSIP) Ltd health and safety assessments.

This collaboration marks an important step in streamlining our procurement process and ensuring every contractor working with us meets a consistent, high standard of Health & Safety on all future projects.

By partnering with Smas Worksafe, we’re making life easier for our supplier base. A more efficient pre-qualification route that reduces unnecessary paperwork for contractors who already hold SSIP accreditation.

Working smarter, not harder, while keeping safety front and centre.

Dave Bail, our Compliance, Safety & Assurance Manager, commented:

“This is a positive move forward for our sub-contract and supplier base. By partnering with SMAS Worksafe, we will further enhance existing company procedures and compliance, ensuring that every contractor on our projects maintains the same high levels of Health & Safety going forward.”

At Walker Construction, safety is a shared responsibility and the foundation of everything we do.

Our team had the privilege of spending the day volunteering at the beautiful Elham Valley Vineyard, helping tend the vines in preparation for this year’s harvest! 🌿🍇

It was a wonderful opportunity to step away from our desks, enjoy the fresh air, and contribute to an organisation that makes such a meaningful difference in our community.

The Fifth Trust is an award-winning charity supporting adults with learning disabilities and providing opportunities, skills, and experiences to over 170 students across its centres.

Their work is truly inspiring, and it was a pleasure to play a small part in supporting their incredible mission.

A huge thank you to everyone at the Fifth Trust for welcoming us so warmly and for the important work you do every day. 🩵💙

Twenty years. Same standards. Same team. 🫶

Jamie has been part of the Walker family since 2005!

He’d have preferred we kept this between us. After 20 years, we didn’t feel this was fair.

So here’s a very humble cheers to Jamie. Thanks for everything. 🍻

Here’s what that looks like in practice:

→ 21 days annual leave + Bank Holidays + the option to buy more
→ Day release at Mid Kent College, studying towards an HNC in Construction Management
→ Hands-on experience on live sites across the UK
→ A clear path to grow into Site and Construction Management
→ The full support of a team that genuinely wants you to succeed

We’re a family business celebrating over 60 years in construction. That family feel runs through everything we do.

You’ll never just be a number here.

Expect to be mentored, supported and given every opportunity to reach your full potential.
