Why Join Ascendas-Singbridge?

We believe that every individual desires to cultivate their career in an organisation that supports their work and life aspirations. Here are some reasons why many of us choose to build our careers in Ascendas-Singbridge.

1. Not Just Another Real Estate Company

Ascendas-Singbridge, formed through the merger of two leading urban planning and development companies is not just another real estate company involved in property development.

Mr Miguel Ko, Group CEO of Ascendas-Singbridge, said: “This is a significant development for both Ascendas and Singbridge, as well as all our stakeholders. The merger allows us to play a bigger role in driving economic and social development in urbanising cities across the region and globally. By leveraging each other’s capabilities to strengthen our existing competencies and expand our offerings, Ascendas-Singbridge will be a formidable force in delivering best-in-class urban and business space solutions to all our customers and partners.”

Singbridge’s Expertise
Beyond the development of high-quality physical ‘hardware’, Singbridge taps on Singapore’s software experience in areas such as urban planning, environment management, infrastructure and transportation, public housing, healthcare, social welfare and community development to create sustainable environments for host communities.

Showcasing Singbridge’s contribution to the urbanisation and economic growth
Singbridge’s projects include its flagship Sino-Singapore Guangzhou Knowledge City and Sino-Singapore Jilin Food Zone, as well as the Singapore-Sichuan (Chengdu) Hi-tech Innovation Park, Raffles City Chongqing and Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-city.

Ascendas’ Expertise
Going beyond brick and mortar, Ascendas carefully designs integrated business spaces and solutions to give customers a unique competitive advantage, enabling them to grow and succeed.

An example of how Ascendas contributes to the economic and industry growth – The International Tech Park Bangalore (ITPB)
The International Tech Park Bangalore (ITPB) is an outstanding example of Ascendas’ contribution to India’s IT industry. From its greenfield beginnings as the pioneer IT Park in suburban Whitefield, ITPB has successfully catalysed the growth of Whitefield into a sprawling showcase of investments that include distinguished campuses of global MNCs. It is India’s first work-live-play business environment. In this space, over 27,000 tech-savvy professionals work for more than 100 companies in the IT & ITES, bioinformatics, software development, telecommunications, electronics and other knowledge industries.

Apart from best-in-class business space, ITPB also features lifestyle amenities such as a 5-star business hotel, ‘Vivanta by Taj’, and a 450,000 sq ft retail mall, ‘Park Square’.

An icon of India’s IT success story, ITPB continues to contribute towards the development of Whitefield as India's Silicon Valley.

2. Our Strong Working Culture

We take pride in our strong team culture - a tightly-knit fabric of values and experiences underpinned by mutual trust, learning, sharing, care and concern. We provide a conducive, family-friendly work environment that enhances our employees’ professional and personal growth.

Our leaders continuously improve their leadership effectiveness so that we can build an engaged and productive workforce. This includes engaging in 360-degree feedback, which is the basis for defining and communicating leadership behaviours that the company values.

Our Wow Club takes the lead in organising regular employee events such as movie nights, games and sports activities, which add a colourful dimension to life in Ascendas-Singbridge. We aspire to be a company where employees can unwind and have fun together, building long-lasting friendships that extend beyond work.

3. We Actively Give Back to Society (CSR)

At Ascendas-Singbridge, we are committed to building strong partnerships with the communities in which we operate, providing support and encouragement through our philanthropic efforts. Our goal is to enable the communities where we work and play to flourish.

The formation of the Ascendas-Singbridge GIVES Foundation (AGF) in 2012 further furnished more opportunities for Ascendas-Singbridge and our staff to actively participate in activities that reach out to more beneficiaries in the arts, community and the environment.

4. We Invest in People Development

In a recent employee engagement survey, our employees across the region rated learning and development, in particular the variety of learning opportunities offered, as a key strength of the company.

Aside from structured learning programmes and events, selected employees are also given opportunities to be attached to different business units, in Singapore or overseas, to gain critical exposure and experience under the Ascendas-Singbridge Attachment Programme.

In addition, our Education Assistance policy provides employees with opportunities to upgrade themselves through part-time professional courses leading to a recognised certificate, diploma, bachelor’s or master’s degree.

5. Our Rewards and Benefits are Competitive

Our rewards and recognition strategy focuses on inculcating the right values and reinforcing positive behaviours that drive employee performance. Besides ensuring that our compensation packages are competitive, we embrace other forms of rewards and recognition such as:

• Long Service Awards
• Service Excellence Awards
• Qualification Awards
• Innovation Awards

From our recent 2014 Employee Engagement Survey, we performed better than the Asia-Pacific Norm in the category of Rewards and Recognition.
