APB Named One of Australia's Best Places to Work

Written by Will Blunt | Sep 4, 2025 6:04:03 AM

What does it take to build something remarkable - not just once, but year after year?

Consistency. Clarity. Culture.

And that’s exactly what APB has been recognised for… again.

For the fourth year running, we've officially been certified as a Great Place to Work. But this year, there’s something even more powerful behind the badge:

We’ve ranked as the 8th Best Small Business Workplace in Australia.

At a time when great talent is hard to find, harder to keep, and culture can make or break your business, this recognition isn’t just a feather in the cap. It’s proof of alignment. Of ownership. Of a team that actually wants to show up, lean in, and give their best.

Not out of obligation - but because they believe in what we’re building.

100% of Our Team Says It’s a Great Place to Work

Here’s what really sets this apart.

When surveyed, 100% of our team said APB is a great place to work.

For context? In the average company, only 6 in 10 employees say the same.

That’s a signal that something different is happening here. That culture isn’t an afterthought, it’s the architecture. It’s what allows our team to move fast, stay aligned, and support ambitious builders with precision and pride.

Growth Without Culture is a Gamble

If you’re trying to scale your building company, you already know this: growth without a strong culture underneath is like building a double-storey on shifting sand.

It might look impressive… but eventually, something cracks.

At APB, we’ve made culture part of the foundation. A shared commitment to accountability, autonomy, and real impact.

That’s what fuels our momentum. That’s what keeps the vision clear. And that’s why our team is one worth celebrating.

A Personal Thanks, and a Bigger Vision

To our team... thank you. You’ve made APB more than a workplace. You’ve made it a place to grow. A place to connect. A place to thrive.

But we’re not here to coast on a title. This is fuel for what comes next.

More impact. More innovation. More builders freed from the daily grind of doing it all themselves, so they can lead, grow, and live on their own terms.

Because when builders thrive, the whole industry rises.

Here’s to many more years of doing work that matters, together.
