The GW Values, Purpose, Goals, Vision
GW's Values
How we Think, How we Feel and How we Behave
Grainger & Worrall is a great place for people who share our values. This is how we tend to think, how we tend to feel and how we tend to behave.
That's not to say we are all identikits of a certain type. We also value diversity and thrive on our differences. But these are the common themes that we look for in all the different people that join us and build their careers with us.
How we Think
It's about attitude, outlook and perspective.
Savvy
Savvy doesn't just mean smart. It's knowledge and intelligence mixed with common sense, realism, commercial. It's creative, lateral, unconventional even.
Open-Minded
Open minded means we believe in the art of the possible. We ask how we can before we ask why we can't. It's agile. It's positive. It's Can-Do, Will-Do.
How we Feel
It's what our work does to us
Engaged
We are engaged because our work is interesting. We are not scared of hard work. Satisfaction comes with achievement.
Invested
Invested in our customers' goals, in our company goals and in our personal goals. Achieving goals really matters to us, deep down.
How we Behave
We all make choices about how we act
Team
A high-performing team built on family values. We trust each other and have each other's back. It's inclusive, respectful and co-dependent. We're in this together, for the long haul.
Integrity
Integrity is a foundation of our actions. It's honesty but more than truthfulness. It's an obligation to act, sticking to your promises, not walking by. It can be harder than saying nothing.
GW's Purpose
We want to help the world achieve carbon-neutral with innovative castings
It may sound grand, but nearly all the projects we work on are linked to this purpose. It might be taking weight out of something that moves, or improving the efficiency of something that consumes energy. That is as true of a Formula 1 engine as it is of a casting the size of a car.
GW's Goals
Zero Accidents
Melting metal has its risks, but so has lifting a box of printer paper or driving a car. We can all play our part in identifying risks, getting trained, and not walking by.
Zero Carbon
Zero Late
Hit Budget
