Our people

A place where I can be me

At Speedy Hire we promote diversity, equity and inclusion (‘DEI’) at all levels of our business, to better equip our business for the future and supporting social mobility by providing fair opportunities for people from all backgrounds.

Looking out for our Speedy Hire family

At Speedy Hire we recognise that poor mental health and wellbeing is an issue in the construction industry, so it is a key priority of our ‘Including Everyone’ pillar.

Unleashing opportunities to help our people grow

Supporting and developing our people is core to our growth, and we invest in talent development throughout our colleagues’ time with us. Find out more about our wide range of initiatives in developing our people at all levels right across our company.

People First Awards

We love to recognise our people for their passion, hard work and dedication throughout the year. Our coveted People First Awards where our people nominate their colleagues for their outstanding contributions, is an annual highlight in our People First programme.
