WELCOME TO THE FLYNN FAMILY!
A personal welcome from Doug Flynn
Doug Flynn joined his father’s company in 1982, working in the field. He got hands on experience by working in estimating, project management, branch management, regional management, and various other positions.
WELCOME TO OUR CREW
Flynn is North America’s leading total building envelope contractor. You have joined a crew that is 6500-strong across the continent. Even though we are big, we remain close-knit and everyone feels part of the Flynn Family.
Flynn Culture
Culture has always been a very important part of Flynn’s success in the past, and will continue to be in the future. We truly believe it is our greatest asset and source of competitive advantage. Watch the video below to learn more about Flynn’s unique culture, and what makes us who we are.
Culture of Safety
There’s nothing more important to us than people. That’s why safety is the top priority at Flynn. It is the core of our culture.
Safety at Flynn starts and ends with taking “CARE”: Competence, Awareness, Risk Management, and Empowerment. We are all responsible for ensuring that everyone goes home safe, to the things that matter most.
We pride ourselves on our industry-leading health & safety program. Flynn always goes above and beyond compliance safety requirements. We ensure that everyone in Flynn is equally invested and takes ownership of the program. The health & safety culture we’ve developed and nurture sets Flynn apart.
Named after our company founder, the Don Flynn Safety Awards are our version of the Stanley Cup! Each year, two branches with the top health and safety performances have a celebration in recognition of their hard work and dedication to our thriving safety culture.This highly sought-after trophy is displayed in their offices until new winners are announced the following year.
