Established in 1998, the Kier Fellowship has a steadily growing membership comprising former Kier employees who have either retired or left the company after five years’ service.
Members of the Kier Fellowship share a common desire to maintain a social link with the business.
The aim of the Kier Fellowship is to create environments within which former Kier employees can keep in touch with one another, including in-person events.
Through its range of events and activities, a link for fellowship and mutual self-help is provided. Not only does it aim to add an extra dimension to the enjoyment of retirement but it also facilitates a link between the Group and its former employees.
Our former employees played an important part in our past and have helped to shape the Kier Group of today. We are keen that you stay in touch through the Kier Fellowship and hope that you can continue to be part of the action.
Our members are able to enjoy plenty of social events, thanks to our regional area organisers up and down the country. Even if you can’t get out and about as often as you’d like, there is something for everyone. You will also receive a regular KierLink magazine packed with latest news and will also be entitled to the benefits of 'Kier Rewards.'
In order to be eligible to join, you should meet one of the following criteria:-
- be a Kier Group pensioner
- be of any age but in permanent ill health retirement
- be a former employee aged 50 or above
- be a widow or widower of a former member of the Trust
- be over normal retirement age but still employed
- be a former employee with more than five years' service with the Group or it's businesses
