OUR BEGINNINGS WERE HUMBLE
Starting out as an apprentice carpenter at 16 years old, GPD Group and Registered builder, Luke, found nothing more than working hard on the tools better, it kept him honest and humble, traits that he holds very dearly still to this day. That passion to turn up day after day to see a structure come from nothing, that is going to provide another human a safe place to call a home or workplace, is soul warming.
Luke first started out in the residential industry, completing his apprenticeship, before gaining further experience working as leading hand whilst extending his knowledge studying his builders license course at night school.
Luke soon realised at this point that the building industry was much bigger, so he set off to learn and develop his skills in the commercial and insurance construction sector. Along the way networking and building connections with many other trades and providers, to this day still chase him to come lead a helping hand.
'The builder builders call'
Along the way, the world came calling, and Luke was privileged to work as an expat in Papua New Guinea, to help manage the national workforce develop their construction skills on mining infrastructure and maintenance plus international aid projects.
A wealth of knowledge, which is the catalyst to what GPD Groups purpose is passionate for, that every client appreciates.
