Mental Health Matters
Last week, some of the Aquest team attended a Speak & Share Workplace Session hosted by Career Employment Group as part of the Mental Health Matters program.

It was a great opportunity to have open and honest conversations about mental health, learn how we can better support the people around us, and build confidence to check in when someone might be doing it tough.

Creating workplaces where people feel comfortable speaking up and looking out for one another is something we’re proud to support.

A big thank you to CEG for hosting the session and to Ben and Abbey from Speak & Share for creating such a welcoming and engaging environment.

Hard work pays off!

Dakoda started his electrical apprenticeship with Aquest as a teenager and has grown into a skilled and valued electrician. Now, he has reached another major milestone—buying his first home!

At Aquest, we love seeing our employees succeed, both at work and in their personal lives. Dakoda’s journey is a great example of what dedication, commitment and hard work can achieve.

Congratulations, Dakoda! We’re proud to have you on the Aquest team and wish you all the best in your new home.

[SETTLEMENT DAY] from the Steelworks, to the front door of his first home this evening

It’s the end of a long day, and Dakoda has just clocked off another shift at the steelworks working hard as a local sparky, like so many in our Whyalla community do every single day

But tonight is different… he doesn’t just finish work

He comes home as a HOMEOWNER

There’s something incredibly rewarding about seeing a young local put in the hours, save consistently, and reach the milestone of buying their very first home

Dakoda, thank you for allowing Harcourts Phillis to be part of such an important chapter in your life

Congratulations, Dakoda on your very first home and enjoy!
