Dedicated, professional staff
Westlink Engineering Group is immensely proud of all its staff across its four divisions.
The company is fortunate to have dedicated staff in the office and on the workshop floor, including draftsmen, estimators and engineers of varying degree of skills and experience.
Westlink's reputation is founded on the combined professionalism and attention to detail of our staff. They are skilled, hard working, and take pride in their work.
High staff retention
In turn, the company's staff has signaled its high regard for the company, as the Westlink Group has an excellent staff retention record. On average, the groups employees work for Westlink for five to seven years, which is an outstanding achievement in the fabrication and engineering sector.
One of the reasons that Westlink has a high staff retention record, is that it encourages its staff to develop their skills across a wide range of areas, and values the input of staff at every level.
Staff across each of the company's four divisions collaborate closely on projects, which extends their understanding outside of their area of specialty.
