Hadiah celebrates 10 years at Melchor

This month, we are proud to celebrate a significant milestone – Hadiah’s 10-year anniversary with Melchor. 

Over the past decade, Hadiah has been an integral part of the business, contributing not only to Melchor's operations but to the culture and people that define the business today.  

Hadiah started with Melchor Electrical, joining the business just six months before the formation of Melchor Contracting. In those early years, she played a pivotal role across multiple businesses in an HR Advisor capacity, supporting teams where it mattered most. As the business evolved, Hadiah was brought directly into Melchor Contracting, and she has been a cornerstone of the team ever since. 

Throughout her time with the business, Hadiah has continually stepped up to new challenges, embraced change, and pushed herself to grow. Whether taking on new responsibilities or supporting people through periods of transition, she has shown resilience, adaptability and a genuine commitment to the business. 

Her impact is reflected not only in her approach, but also in the scale of what she has been part of over the past 10 years, including contributing to 41 projects, supporting more than 3,000 mobilisations, and helping deliver over 300,000 cubic metres of concrete, along with 40 apprentice sign-ups and 14 completions, navigating five EBAs and eight “dry spells”, celebrating three industry award finalists, and even witnessing one memorable exploding golf ball. 

While these numbers are impressive, they only tell part of the story. 

What truly sets Hadiah apart is her genuine care for people. She takes the time to listen, support and guide those around her, ensuring individuals feel valued and understood. She brings a thoughtful and considered approach to her work, always looking at situations from all angles and finding ways to support both the business and its people. 

Through periods of growth, challenge and change – including the recent sale and transition of Melchor – Hadiah has been a constant source of support for colleagues at every level. On a personal level, she is not only a trusted professional, but also a valued friend to many across the business. 

It has been an eventful 10 years, and Hadiah has played a key role in shaping the journey so far. As we look ahead, there is no doubt she will continue to make a meaningful contribution to the future of Melchor. 

Thank you, Hadiah, for your dedication and the positive impact you’ve made over the past decade. 

Congratulations on reaching this milestone – we look forward to the years ahead.
