"A standout feature of Kane’s Cadet Program is its strong emphasis on teamwork. Through regular cadet days, we are encouraged to connect, share experiences, and build lasting professional relationships. This has created a collaborative network where cadets support one another by offering fresh perspectives, acting as sounding boards for ideas, and sharing insights from tasks they’ve already undertaken. No challenge ever feels too great when tackled together, with the added guidance and encouragement of senior staff. This spirit of teamwork not only builds confidence but also fosters growth, making the cadet journey both rewarding and inspiring."

"From the outset of the cadet program, I’ve been trusted with real responsibilities regardless of experience. The role continues to give me exposure to every stage of the building process, from contracts through to project delivery. Most importantly, the supportive team environment is helping me develop quickly and with confidence."

"I’ve really enjoyed getting to know my fellow cadets, establishing connections right from my first day that will last years to come. There’s a strong support network between the cadets, and we look help each other out whenever we can."

"I started my cadetship with Kane a little differently to most, being thrown straight onto site at Iglu from day one. This fast tracked my growth and gave me a sink or swim mentality that pushed me to learn quickly. With the strong support structure on site, I’ve gained more knowledge and experience in 12 months than I ever imagined possible, setting me up for a career path I’m really excited about."

“What I valued most about the cadet program was starting in head office, where I connected with other cadets in the same stage of their careers and built a strong support system.”
