Thor Companies

At Thor, we talk a lot about having a growth mindset – but more importantly, we build systems that make it real 💡 Too many companies treat growth as a buzzword. In reality, growth only happens when learning, feedback, and behaviour are supported at every level of the business. That’s why we’ve focused on creating: • Clear learning pathways that match real career progression. • Standards that stretch people, not overwhelm them. • Recognition that celebrates how we work, not just what we bill. • Tech adoption that drives better outcomes for teams and clients. • External accreditations like APSCo to keep us aligned with industry best practice. • A culture where curiosity, reflection, and knowledge-sharing are the norm. All of this has shaped a stronger, more confident organisation – one where people genuinely develop, rather than feel pressure to “be better”. We’ve pulled together a quick breakdown of what businesses can do to build a true growth culture, with examples of how we’re putting it into action at Thor.

⚡ The grid is the unsung hero of the data centre and energy revolution. As AI, cloud computing, and electrification accelerate, global data demand is skyrocketing – and with it, the strain on ageing grid infrastructure. Traditional systems weren’t designed for the decentralised, high-demand, renewable-powered world we’re moving towards. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁? Grid congestion, interconnection bottlenecks, and growing pressure on the workforce that keeps everything running. At the same time, the demand for talent has never been greater. Engineers, project managers, and digital specialists are all in competition between utilities, data centres, and tech firms. With an ageing workforce and long project lead times, the skills gap is widening. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻? Collaboration. Between energy and data sectors. Between public and private investment. And between businesses and the next generation of talent. 👉 Swipe through to explore the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of the grid – and what it means for the people powering it.
