The company.

 
 

A love of machines, being part of a team and embracing hard work led Simon King to establish Kings Construction + Rail in 2018. After noticing a lack of depth in skilled operators, Simon wanted to ensure the company could supply only high calibre machinery operators for a wide array or projects. Since 2018, Kings has developed a strong reputation in the industry. It is known for its reliability and providing its clients with impressive results.

The Kings team loves what they do, strive for excellence at every turn and believe in making the clients’ job as easy as possible. We place high value on clear communication and offer our expertise wherever it is needed to improve a project’s efficiency, productivity, safety and sustainability.  

As a young company, we are hungry to get out there and build relationships. Along with expertise we aim to provide an honest and stress-free approach. We take pride in our work and will go the extra mile to ensure our clients are happy and satisfied with the finished job.

The founder.

 

Raised in central Victoria, Simon completed his final year of schooling and started work as a labourer with a local earthmoving company. The job ignited his love for machines and he soon found himself working in the rail industry in the middle of NSW, eight hours from home. Never shy of asking a question, he rang the boss and asked if he could become an excavator operator. The boss nodded. Simon was thrown straight into the deep end as part of a rail crew consisting of more than 30 excavators. He learnt quickly and soon began operating hi-rail excavators all over the country.

Since then, Simon has spent almost 15 years working in the rail and construction industry. He has been part of some of the biggest projects in the country and worked in some of the most challenging conditions. During his career, Simon has operated all kinds of plant and equipment across Australia as well as enjoying a brief stint in the UK. He has proven himself a highly reliable operator with a great eye for detail.
