A Ribbon Cutting at the Landing at Hudson Mills of the new Golden Group Roofing Company headquarters revealed several inventive features envisioned by co-founder and CEO Greta Bajrami. She explained that these elements were included to create a groundbreaking, post-Covid work environment.
She said, “Our new corporate headquarters [in the Landing at Hudson Mills] features an open floor plan for our sales and administrative team of ten. I wanted to create a space to inspire, to foster collaboration. This is my vision for an environment that sparks innovation within a relaxed atmosphere.”
The Landing at Hudson Mills: A historic building with character and amenities
“The Landing Mills is a beautiful old building with 16-foot ceilings,” she continued. “We designed it like a café with high-top tables and a granite kitchen. There is a living room and a conference area with a communal 12-person table. There is even a pool table so our staff can have fun, too.”
The building also features floor to ceiling windows, and a history that gives the space character. Within the building there are coffee shops, aerial yoga, a Crossfit gym, and a brewery! Employees can grab lunch and enjoy an after-work drink.
Women-Owned Local Roofing Company Settles into the Hudson, MA Community
“It is my philosophy that when you improve your staff’s work balance, the happier they will be. We don’t want them to feel they are trapped or are missing out on the world post-Covid,” Greta said. “Here the employee demographic is around 30 to 35 years old. There is a younger culture. The feeling, the vibe in Hudson, demands a younger atmosphere. Hudson boasts a great downtown area. It is a small town but one that is very different from others in the area. It is trendy, and welcoming to our clients, as well as to employees.”
More than a decade of roofing experience
Golden Group Roofing just completed their eleventh year in business. They have two other offices, one in Westborough and another in Lexington.
Their December ribbon-cutting was officiated by Sarah Cressy, CEO of the Assabet Chamber of Commerce. Representatives from State Senator Jamie Eldridge’s office as well as Massachusetts Representative Kate Hogan and 45 Hudson business owners attended the event.
The event was in fact a “double” ribbon-cutting which featured co-resident of the Landing Mills building, Ladybugz Interactive Agency, which is not only a new tenant at 43 Broad Street, but also the marketing agency for Golden Group Roofing.
A Vision for the Future
When asked her concept for the future of Golden Group, Greta Bajrami said she envisions a workplace where there are opportunities for all employees to be intrapreneurial, where each can share ideas and suggestions without having to be an actual entrepreneur. Her philosophy is to manage by fostering creative notions and opinions. She does not believe in: “Do it because I said so.” It is her fervent belief that only those companies who encourage collaboration will prosper and continue their growth curve. Bajrami also believes in helping young workers to thrive, to flourish in the trade. She pays them well and offers a better quality of work life, believing that her labor practices benefit her company and the trade as well. She is invested in bringing back a sense of community that helps family-owned businesses succeed.
What’s New for Golden Group?
She also announced a new, fully solar roofing program. Golden Group Roofing will be the first roofing company that also does solar panel installation. With the MA solar credits that are available, residents and commercial clients can apply for up to 30% credits that cover both the roof and the solar panels.
Golden Group Roofing has changed the roofing and siding business with its innovative thinking, coupled with state-of-the-art technology and streamlined processes, as well as exceptional customer service.
