Top Employer

Recognised for our people practices — globally and locally

Holcim has been recognised as a Global Top Employer by the Top Employers Institute – one of only 18 companies worldwide to receive the certification. Australia and New Zealand were among the 27 Holcim markets across all regions to receive the Top Employer award, reflecting the strength of our people practices and the culture behind the Holcim Spirit.

For Holcim New Zealand, this recognition reinforces what matters most: creating a workplace where people are supported to grow, develop capability, and do meaningful work — safely and inclusively.

Being named a Top Employer affirms what our people already know — Holcim is a place where you are supported and encouraged to grow. It’s the Holcim Spirit in action, and we’re proud to offer that experience to everyone who joins us.

What “Top Employer” means

Top Employer certification is based on an independent assessment of people practices against global benchmarks. The evaluation covers areas including career development, learning, wellbeing and compensation, as well as leadership and culture.

In simple terms: it’s a recognised, external measure that Holcim is building a workplace where:

talent is nurtured and development is supported
people feel included and respected
wellbeing and engagement are taken seriously
health and safety remain a top priority
