Careers
At Bethell, we put our people first.
They set us apart and are, without doubt, our greatest strength and our keenest competitive advantage.
We acknowledge that many of our business models and processes can be cloned over time by our competitors – not so with our people – and it is our workforce that drives the innovation required to keep us one step ahead.
Our Investors in People accreditations recognise that Bethell’s people strategy opens new career pathways into the industry and upskills our people to deliver the best for our clients, while also demonstrating that our established wellbeing strategy helps our workforce feel positive about working at Bethell.
At Bethell, you are not just a number. Our people, as individuals, bring the intellectual capacity and skills base needed for us to excel as a business. They’re also passionate about what they do. We understand that relationships cannot be duplicated, and most importantly, it’s the years of experience that make all the difference. Bethell believes that we are exceptional, as many of our staff have more than 10 years of service.
As a team, our people demonstrate every day that their commitment to our corporate vision can achieve the most ambitious goals.
That is why Bethell always places the utmost importance on employing a direct workforce of people who stand out from the crowd. We may use specialist subcontractors of the highest quality from time to time, but it is our own people that set us apart from the rest.
Bethell is immensely proud of our people and the unique contribution they each make to our ongoing success. Our people share in this success as well, with 10% of our corporate profits placed into a profit-sharing scheme for all monthly staff, and annual team-based incentives for our site operatives who are paid weekly.
Start something brilliant…
At Bethell, we are always on the lookout for new talent and our apprentice programmes are custom-built each year to “grow our own” talent for the future. There’s plenty of knowledge that you’ll learn on the job (that you could never learn from a book) and our experts are keen to share their knowledge with you. These schemes are specifically designed to give you all the experience and training you need to achieve your key end roles and you will be guided by a mentor, an assessor and your line manager.
If you share our passion for the future and you want to get started on your career immediately, you could be part of our multi-talented line-up.
As the winner of the “Medium-Large Construction Apprentice Employer of the Year” award for the 2023 Construction Apprenticeship Awards, our apprenticeships are award-winning and is a testament to our homegrown talent and investment into quality apprenticeships.
Bethell is proud to be part of a select group of employers who hold the Platinum 5% Club accreditation, recognising the significant contribution to the continued development of all our employees through “earn and learn” schemes, such as apprenticeships, graduate schemes and sponsored student course placements.
