Our Company

Williams Corporation’s success is a direct result of our values and our culture. By instilling our values and culture within everyone who works with, or for our business, we ensure that everyone can make decisions in the best interest of the company.

That means everyone is a leader in our company, which is reflected in our flat staffing structure. We believe all our staff are professionals, and entrust the success of the company in everyone’s hands.

Education isn’t static or a degree, it is the discipline to learn every day.

Our Homes

Architecture

A building needs integrity, the same as a person, and that comes down to the architecture, design, build quality and energy that goes in to producing it. We build homes that have roofs that protect from the elements, with soffits to keep the water from the walls, with windows that provide light to its occupants and on stand-alone titles providing clear ownership to the owner.

Materials

We only use exceptional materials to build our homes, with a proven history of quality and locally sourced where possible. The definition of integrity is to do the right thing when no one is watching, and that applies to the materials in our homes that no one ever sees.

Our Plans

Our strength comes from producing the best possible product at scale, to give customers great value. Our inhouse teams are always innovating and developing our product with small tweaks, but we do not alter our product for any specific customer. If an idea is great, it should be added to all our homes.

Our People

Work

If you do something you are passionate about, then you never work a day in your life. We are property lovers, and bring the best version of ourselves to work each day to pass on our knowledge and expertise to our customers. When we are driven by a collective purpose, we can achieve greater things than companies 10x our size. We are the Navy Seals of the construction world, and everyone wants to know what goes on in our elite unit!

Investment in our people

The company will invest in its people giving them opportunities to better their lives. We believe in giving our team the best possible chance of personal success through knowledge, resource and guidance. We do so on the basis of building a strong team that wants to contribute for many years, but anyone is always free to leave and follow their own path.

Improvement & Education

Nothing should ever be accepted for the way it is, you can always improve. We do that via a commitment to ourselves and to education to ensure we get 1% better everyday.

Health

To change the world everyone needs a healthy body and healthy mind. That means we lead lives that allow ourselves to be the best version of ourselves at all times. We exercise, eat well, get consistent sleep and allow ourselves time to relax and re-energise.

Punctuality

Time is a person’s greatest asset and should be treated accordingly. We are always ready for an appointment and give that time completely to the person we are with by being present, both in mind and body.

Focus

No person employed or on sole contract for the company can do other work. Our people are our success and must have a single-minded determination to our drive the success of our company. You can’t have one foot in and one foot out. Our people need to be all in for us to achieve our dreams.
