New Plumbing Solutions

Our commitment to creating opportunities is having real impact on the next generation of plumbing apprentices 🚿 By opening our doors and experience to individuals ready to chart their own path, we are able to expose them to possibilities they never dreamed of. To share Cloe's experience and further encourage budding apprentices into the workforce, especially as plumbers, is an opportunity we are extremely proud of. Thank you to the Inner Northern Local Learning and Employment Network Inc (INLLEN) for their continued collaboration with NPS, and here's to all our future plumbers 🌟

A glimpse at our Annual Full Company Toolbox 🌟 🥓🍳☕ Not only an opportunity for a bacon & egg roll, a fresh coffee, and a laugh with our team mates – they are also about cross-division interaction and relationship building, further strengthening our safety protocols, celebrating team and individual wins, and planning for the year ahead. These are the 6AM starts we most look forward to! Here's to exciting 2025 🚀

If you don't measure it, you can't manage it 📏 Off the back of our key takeaway from Andrew Hinchliffe's presentation at the NORTH Link event for Brimbank City Council, the importance of measuring water efficiencies has never been more apparent. Guiding attendees through the journey of water efficiency, Andrew explored how Water Conservation Practices and Trade Waste Management can significantly impact and equally transform a businesses operations. Thank you to North Link for the opportunity to speak and participate as a panel member for the follow up discussions. It was exciting to see so many businesses represented and engaging with strategies to improve their operational efficiency 🚰 Missed the event, or simply want to know more about our work in this space?

Creating opportunities together, isn't just for our customers or communities, it's also about building our talent from within 🌟 Last year we launched our industry-leading Apprenticeship Plus Program, designed to foster the careers of our apprentices beyond their apprenticeships. By blending hands-on training with cutting-edge classroom learning, they have access to an environment that extends their capability. Beyond being winners of the Victoria Training Awards Employer Award for Apprenticeship Development in both 2022 and 2023 and a 2024 Finalist, we have also been recognised for our participation as a Host Employer for the Structured Workplace Learning programs in both 2023 and 2024 under the School to Work government initiative. We're proud to cheer on apprentice development in any way we can, which lead to our contribution to the 2023 NCAT Bring It On industry team 🚀 This is no small investment, so what does it give us? Supporting our people helps them support us, meaning we have lower turnover, instead creating opportunities for them to grow with us, into roles as contract managers, mentors and more. Spreading our distinct NPS way through every level of of the business for years to come 🙌 #NAWA #NationalApprenticeshipWeek #PlumbingApprenticeships

The National Apprenticeship Week Australia theme for 2025 centres around "Skills in Motion," the idea of encouraging individuals to take ownership of their career trajectory 🚀 So how could we not share a homegrown success story, with Cloe finding her passion for plumbing. Coming to NPS through the Inner Northern Local Learning and Employment Network Inc (INLLEN) and our involvement in the Structure Workplace Learning Program (SWL), Cloe's career opportunities exploded when she was exposed to the possibilities in the plumbing industry, an industry she'd never considered. Inspired by the initiatives to support women in plumbing, and the opening of a door of unlocked potential, Cloe's isn't just about breaking gender norms; it’s about an individual finding her passion, steering her own dreams and overcoming stereotypes in a field she is passionate about. "I couldn’t be happier with the company I work for. NPS has welcomed me and treated me as a valuable part of the team. I’ve learnt so much from all the plumbers, I get scheduled with different plumbers doing different jobs and that has made my experience enjoyable." - Cloe #NAWA #NationalApprenticeshipWeek #PlumbingApprenticeships

It's National Apprenticeship Week 2025 and NPS are proud to have over 30 apprentices developing the skills needed for them to thrive as plumbers 💪 Over the years we have watched apprentices grow in every facet of our business, from plumbing to business disciplines, creating opportunities together with them. As winners of the Victoria Training Awards Employer Award for Apprenticeship Development in both 2022 and 2023 and a 2024 Finalist, we think our investment speaks for itself. NPS loves nothing more than seeing our apprentices develop into not only great plumbers but also great people, and we are proud to play an important role in their professional journey! Join us celebrating apprentices and the important role they play 🌟 National Apprenticeship Week Australia #NAWA #SkillsInMotion #ApprenticeshipsAustralia

🚽 Don’t take your loo for granted As contractors for hospitals, schools, councils, and iconic sporting venues, we are no strangers to the protection of our clients' complex and extensive toilet infrastructure. Yet for 1.5 billion people, basic sanitation and access to toilets are still out of reach. Toilets are more than convenience — they’re protection. By creating a barrier between us and our waste, they are essential for public and environmental health. Without adequate systems, pollution spreads, and deadly diseases are unleashed. This #WorldToiletDay, we’re raising awareness, hoping that together we can help drive change for communities in need. 💧 Learn more through WaterAid: https://lnkd.in/g99aQEhK or UN: https://lnkd.in/gM-chfu
