A
& E Construction spiral duct work . These contracts are three of many that the business has executed , and will continue to be involved in .
Tony ’ s outlook for the future of A & E is optimistic , and when asked what readers can expect from the business over the next five years , he gave a light-hearted nudge to his retirement . “ Hopefully , in five years ’ time , I ’ ll be calling in from a lovely beach to see how they ’ re all getting on ,” he says , with a chuckle . “ On a serious note , I expect to see slow , steady , smart growth from the company . I would also like to see the next generation coming in with the talent and determination to look after the business , but that ’ s a little too soon to tell . Most importantly , I ’ d like to see the business grow , while staying true to our family-first ethos .”
In closing , Tony reflects on his role and the aspects of it that make the work worthwhile . “ I love hearing about how well our team is doing . When I go to a site and customers tell me about how the team has worked so hard , and they ’ ve done a great job , that for me is really rewarding . Of course , I ’ d be lying if I told you that there haven ’ t been any hiccups , but when you have a great team who know how to work together to get the job done , those issues are quickly resolved , and it leaves the customer feeling well supported . Those are the moments that make me incredibly proud ,” he concludes . ■
