Faeem Hamid

Branch Manager, BUCO Cape Town

Any organization strength lies in its culture and core beliefs. What I love about working at The Building company is the values of the company, driven by "siyaka" (we are building); and a diverse group of great people working together towards a common goal - success.

HR Administrator: Learning & Development

I started as an HR intern at The Building Company during my final year as a Master’s Student. I was extremely welcomed and could not have asked for a better experience. I was hired full-time after 8-months into my 12-month internship and that speaks to not only my capabilities but how the company has trained and nurtured my skills. The staff is possibly the best people that you could ever work with in your life!
