Finding and nurturing the right talent is one of the most important investments any business can make and nowhere is that truer than in early careers. This September, GAP welcomed 14 new graduates across the business, up from just three last year. It’s a clear signal of our growing commitment to early careers, and a sign of things to come as we continue to build out our graduate offering.

GAP Hire Solutions, the UK’s largest independent hire company, has been awarded a RoSPA Gold Award for Fleet Safety for the fourth consecutive year, in recognition of the strong safety culture embedded across the business.

As autumn sets in, ground conditions change fast. And a machine that was perfect for your site in July can quickly become a liability by October. Softer ground, shorter days and heavier rain all shift what “the right machine” actually means. Getting the spec wrong now costs more than it would in summer: lost time, damaged ground, and machines that simply can’t do the job safely.

Autumn is coming, and so is the annual silt challenge.
