ABOUT US

WE TAKE THE HASSLE OUT OF CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS FOR OUR CLIENTS.

WE DELIVER HIGH QUALITY: SAFELY, ON TIME AND ON BUDGET.

OUR STORY

OUR CULTURE

Josh Olden and Dean Matthews founded iDIG Developments in 2010 with a clear vision: to build a company that would deliver the right resources for the project (with the ability to scale up or down as required); and create employment opportunities in regional areas.

While iDIG has grown over the years, we’ve stayed true to our vision. And that’s what continues to set us apart.

We’re also proud to have created a supportive culture where our people can reach their full potential. Today, Josh and Dean are supported by an exceptional leadership team and a highly skilled, diverse workforce.

We provide project management, safety, and environment professionals, right through to project and site engineers. Our people ‘on the tools’ range from plant operators to concreters, carpenters, riggers and dogmen, to personnel ticketed to work in the rail corridor. We have dedicated people who work closely with our clients to match the right range of diverse resources to meet the unique challenges of each project.

Our clients value our expertise and knowledge of onsite requirements, our leadership and reliability. All of this has earned us the trust of industry leaders including John Holland, McConnell Dowell, CPB, Seymour Whyte and Fulton Hogan.

We build more than just enduring, quality construction here at iDIG.

We also build relationships with our clients that stand the test of time.

At iDIG, we’re building a culture that our people want to be part of.

We’re an open, well-connected team where everyone’s opinion is valued. Our culture is welcoming, inclusive and we embrace diversity.

Everyone’s physical safety is paramount, so we’re committed to looking out for one another. This extends to wellbeing and cultural safety. It’s important that our people feel safe to bring their whole selves to work.

We are passionate about matching regional and urban workforces with local work and to providing meaningful employment opportunities for everyone we employ.

Our team does exceptional work, so it’s important to us that they are exceptionally supported. We provide ongoing learning and development opportunities and encourage open and honest communication at all levels.

PARTNERSHIPS
AND
COMMUNITY

At iDIG we’re committed to building more.

That extends to the opportunities we create for our communities.

Indigenous employment opportunities

For the past three years, iDIG has been working in partnership with HDF Corporation to create employment opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders.

HDF is an Indigenous-owned company that provides meaningful employment opportunities for Indigenous and Torres Strait Islanders in the civil construction industry.

Through this partnership, we’re aiming to have a 20% Indigenous workforce by 2023. All new employees have the benefit of working alongside, and learning from, our experienced workforce. Additionally, ongoing support and mentoring from the HDF team provide our Indigenous workforce with the support and skills they need to accelerate their careers. HDF’s leaders also work alongside our own, building their skills and knowledge on all aspects of running a construction company.

We’re proud to offer our clients the opportunity to help us support an Indigenous-owned business through this partnership. Together, we’re helping to build employment opportunities for Indigenous Australians.

Grass roots support

At iDIG, we believe that strong local sporting clubs equal strong communities. Having seen first-hand the role that sporting clubs and community organisations play in enhancing the physical, mental, social and emotional health and wellbeing of our people, iDIG is a proud and active contributor to a number of community organisations.

With more than 60% of our workforce connected with regional areas of Victoria, it makes sense for us to give back in those communities too.
