We have grown our commitment to industrial decarbonisation by joining Climate Group‘s SteelZero initiative, alongside our pledge to ConcreteZero back in October 2022.
SteelZero members pledge to use 50% low-emission steel by 2030, which sets a clear pathway to using 100% net zero steel by 2050. Our prior commitment to ConcreteZero is our promise to use 30% low-emission concrete by 2025 and 50% by 2030, with a long-term target of using 100% net zero concrete by 2050. We are excited to be able to influence the design and use of concrete and steel across a wide range of built environment projects.

At Robert Bird Group, powerful women are breaking through the glass ceiling and striving for success, with greater motivation than ever before. Inspiring females are proving to themselves and others around them, that they have the skills, knowledge, experience and passion to lead and develop teams on some of the world’s most ambitious projects. Combining positive stakeholder engagement, adept commercial management of resources and specialist technical prowess, these women offer bright perspective to RBG’s service offering. Our proactive Diversity & Inclusion Committee, working closely with the People & Culture Team and supported by the Leadership Group, has enabled a development platform that focuses on opportunities for women. With this platform we envisage sustained growth in female staff numbers, across all levels, for the foreseeable future. Below each gives her own insight as to what is it like to be a woman working in the construction industry.

Last week saw us reach 10,000 followers on LinkedIn! It’s been a fabulous year celebrating our 35th Birthday with everyone. We are proud to support local charities and initiatives, so to recognise this milestone, Robert Bird Group are giving back by donating $1 per follower to The Smith Family in Australia, and Mind in the UK. Thank you to our ‘flock’ for following us on LinkedIn and sharing in our successes. #TheSmithFamily #MindUK #RBGturns35
