Proterra Group

Our

People

At the risk of being cliché, Proterra Group is like a family. A big, diverse functional family, where everyone’s opinions matter, where open communication is encouraged, and where each person has ownership in the operation of the business.


It’s true, we are unashamedly passionate about improving rural and regional communities, but we are equally invested in the development of our employees.


We encourage and celebrate individual growth and success, and are committed to attracting and retaining staff members who strive for more. 



Our dedication to creating a highly effective and respected workforce is strengthened by our values:

    • Community

    Supporting local business with a strong community presence


    If you haven’t noticed, we have a love of regional communities; they drive us. We believe that it takes a tribe to keep a community thriving and mutual support plays an important part. We are proud to say that when we work in a community, we try our best to live within that community too.


    We use locally based resources and suppliers whenever we can to ensure money stays in the towns where it belongs.


    Our people rent houses within your region, get their cars serviced at the local mechanic, visit the local news agency for their stationary, and enjoy a good meal (and beer) at the local.


    We also love to donate money to great local causes, give our time back by volunteering and supply merchandise when we can.
