Introducing UQ’s “Years of Service” Wall

Urban Quarry is continually seeking skilled, hardworking professionals to join our team. From day one, our employees are provided with the opportunity to learn from the ground up in a variety of industry-related skills, and as a family-owned and operated business, we truly care about each person as they navigate their careers within the organization.

As a company, we all felt it was important to acknowledge and recognize our dedicated team of long-standing employees who have been working with us for so many years in a proper display of appreciation – something set in stone you might say!

“Hard work, loyalty and perseverance are the cornerstones of great employees. They are the pillars of what makes our organization a success. We are so proud to recognize those who have reached certain milestones along their journey through their dedication to our family business on our Years of Service wall.”

– Serge Bellavance, VP of Sales + Marketing, Co-owner

Earlier this year, we worked on creating a Years of Service wall on the second level of the Urban Quarry office at 2717 Stevenage Drive in Ottawa. This wall display differentiates 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30+ years of company contributions with name plaques secured to stunning pieces of stone, all mounted to the wall. Each slab represents a 5-year milestone achievement, along with mountain-like visuals that were engraved on each slab demonstrating the upward journey to each of their careers.

“Together we can do so much. Recognizing the years in service is showcasing the dedication that has led us to success!”

– Mireille Bellavance, VP of Operations, Co-owner 

Afterall, we wouldn’t be where we are today without the dedication and contributions of each of our talented team members. As the business expands, it’s more important than ever to show our employees – as well as potential applicants and new hires – what a positive and rewarding work environment we have built. We offer great opportunities for motivated, hardworking, and organized individuals to learn and grow.

“Our local family business is all about the people, so it’s exciting to now recognize this with our new ‘Years of Service’ program. This was started during Covid and to have it show on our wall here for everyone to see is wonderful.”

– Bob Gould, President
