James Giles Recognised as 2025 MPAQ Business Person of the Year Award

We are incredibly proud to celebrate James Giles, Director of James Giles Plumbing, has been named the 2025 MPAQ Business Person of the Year.

Presented by the Master Plumbers' Association of Queensland (MPAQ), this prestigious Industry Award recognises individuals who demonstrate outstanding leadership, business excellence and a meaningful contribution to the Plumbing and Gas Industry.

A Recognition of Leadership

While business success is one measure of achievement, this award recognises something much broader. It celebrates leaders who build strong businesses through innovation, strategic thinking, professional excellence and a commitment to developing both people and industry.

For James, this recognition reflects a journey that began with humble foundations and has grown into one of Queensland's leading specialist Industrial Plumbing and Type B Gas Businesses.

Over the years, James Giles Plumbing has evolved from domestic plumbing into complex commercial and industrial projects requiring advanced technical capability. Today, the team is trusted to deliver specialist solutions across Australia, supporting projects where expertise, precision and innovation are critical.

More Than Business Growth

James has never measured success purely by the size of the business.

Instead, his focus has always been on building capability, creating opportunities and investing in people. Whether expanding into emerging technologies, developing specialist services or mentoring the next generation of tradespeople, every decision has been made with long-term success of both the company and it's people in mind.

This award reflects not only James' vision but also the dedication of the entire James Giles Plumbing team, whose commitment to excellence continues to strengthen the company every day.

Looking Ahead

Receiving the 2025 MPAQ Business Person of the Year Award is an incredible honour and an important milestone in the companies journey.

Congratulations, James, on this well-deserved recongition. Your leadership continues to inspire our team, build confidence in our clients and contribute positively to the future of Australia's Plumbing and Gas Industry.
