Sarah Constructions has been an enduring part of the South Australian construction industry since 1961, when HF Sarah and Sons was founded by Harry Sarah. Today, more than 60 years later, the business is run by Harry’s grandsons, cousins James and Tim Sarah, who proudly employ more than 200 South Australians, working with hundreds of local subcontractors and suppliers.

James Sarah firmly believes that Sarah’s longevity and success is due to the quality and commitment of its people.

“Exceptional projects are delivered by exceptional people, and excellence is not possible without the finest people working together for our clients and each other. One of our core values is ‘People First’ and Sarah has always invested heavily in giving our staff reasons to stay with us – providing them with opportunities to learn and grow and balance work with their personal life.”

“I am proud that we have several people who have been a part of the Sarah ‘family’ for more than 20 years, 25 years, and a few for more than 30 years. I feel this is a testament to the company’s values and the respect we show each other.”

Each year, Sarah hosts a lunch attended by current and former staff members who have achieved more than 20 years employment with the Group. At this year’s function in March, we asked two employees, Brian Watson and Terry Jarvis to reflect on their careers at Sarah, and the future of the state’s construction industry.
