Zoe Kennedy Foundation

In 2020, Figurehead’s commitment to helping those in need saw us launch a charitable initiative of our own—the Zoe Kennedy Foundation—following the tragic passing of the daughter of our friend and loyal colleague, Figurehead Construction Manager, Lach Kennedy. Zoe suffered an acute asthma attack and was rushed to hospital where she was immediately placed on life-support. Four days later, the Kennedy family was devastated to learn that Zoe would not recover.
In partnership with Asthma Australia, Figurehead established the Zoe Kennedy Foundation. Through grants and PhD Scholarships, the foundation helps fund progressive research into asthma prevention, management and eradication, with a specific focus on the increased risk for teenagers—and in doing so, honours a young life cut short.

Innovation

The Figurehead Group pursues innovation with focus and purpose. Operating within the structured environment of our NEXT program, we ensure every research and development initiative aligns with our organisational strategy.
Working together in small, task-specific groups that draw upon Figurehead’s vast experience and multifaceted expertise, we challenge ourselves to devise and deliver best practice methods, systems and technologies across a wide range of critical areas, including ESD, construction methodology and occupational health and safety.
This continual improvement ensures Figurehead remains at the forefront of innovation within our industry, and succeeds in creating ever more efficient, more environmentally sustainable outcomes for the benefit of our team, our stakeholders and the end users of the projects we deliver.

Reconcilliation

Our journey towards cultural awareness and reconciliation is in its early stages but our commitment is ongoing. In July 2022 our leadership team and 116 Rokeby Project team commenced Cultural Awareness training with the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation, traditional owners of the land at Rokeby Street, Collingwood. In consultation with the Wurundjeri people, Figurehead Group have commissioned Indigenous artists Lowell Hunter and Gerard Black to complete an art piece to be ‘imprinted’ into the concrete of 116 Rokeby’s southern façade.
We are proud to communicate a story of a future of knowledge sharing, family and kinship with the traditional owners.

Sustainability

Climate change is one of the greatest challenges facing Australia today, and our impact on climate as a construction company is significant. Construction projects are challenging and complex from start to finish, but we recognise the urgency and ongoing requirements for a more sustainable future.
