Careers with Kane

I began my journey with Kane in 2021 as a Health and Safety Administrator before going on Maternity Leave, returning in May 2022. Since returning from Maternity Leave, I have been supported by the Kane team and I have now taken on a new role of Trainee Health and Safety Officer. My progression within the company shows that Kane are committed to investing in their employee’s personal development. I have since been put through Health and Safety training and I hope to take other courses as I continue to grow in my new role. Kane understand that there is a life outside of work and promote a good work life balance for all employees through the work of the Social and Wellbeing Committee’s. Kane is a great place to work and I would recommend to anyone thinking of joining the business to go for it - you won’t regret it!

I have been with Kane for almost 5 years and have progressed to my current role of Senior Mechanical Estimator. In this role I review tender packs & cost out the mechanical work; along with a colleague from electrical estimating we submit a tender offer to the client. From early on in my time with Kane, I have been valued as a team member through being included in client meetings as well as having attended training courses to help develop my skills, knowledge, and confidence in my role.Kane is the best employer I have worked for; this is due to the effort by the directors to keep the family feel. The time and money invested into Employee Wellbeing doesn’t go unnoticed, with benefits such as Healthshield, the Social and Wellbeing Committees and regular company events – not to forget the incredible in-house gym at Head Office.

I joined Kane in 2014 and over those years my career has developed greatly. Currently I am in my final year of a part time Quantity Surveying and Commercial Management degree at Ulster University, Kane have been extremely supportive throughout my degree giving me the flexibility to work full time alongside my studying. Within the company there is a strong focus on employees and Kane prioritise personal development alongside wellbeing. I have been given the opportunity to attend multiple training courses over my years at Kane and I am continually developing my skills in a wide range of areas. I have seen the company grow immensely from year to year and I enjoy being part of a great family business.

I’ve been a part of Team Kane for 5 years now and worked across 4 projects in London. I started as Junior Mechanical Project Manager on Greenwich Millennium Village Phase 5 and progressed into Logistics Manager/Assistant Mechanical Project Manager roles. I now am working as a Mechanical Project Manager. Kane have consistently invested in my training and professional development and to date, I have completed SSSTS and fire marshal courses. During my 5 years at Kane I have been able to meet a lot of new people whilst working on site but also at Kane Social and Wellbeing events. Frequently organised company events is not something I have experienced at previous companies.Kane, as a company, is great for morale, building friendships and relieving stress as a team whilst working in such a fast-paced industry. I believe meeting and bonding with new people on a personal level has made work more enjoyable.

During my 4 years as a Store Operative with Kane, I've learnt that Kane has excellent staff morale and team spirit. A wide range of in-house training programmes have helped me develop the skills and support needed toward achieving my personal career goals within the business. Opportunities to progress, learn and develop, both professionally and personally are hugely encouraged in Kane. Kane maintain that all employees have a strong work/life balance and offer plenty of fun activities and company perks through the Social and Wellbeing committees, helping to take time away from working pressures and assist with team bonding.
