Our People

Success in today's construction industry is about employing the right people.

Our company attracts only the highest calibre staff, who work at the grassroots of our business to understand our clients' needs and deliver great projects.

Our people really are the face of the company and the next generation of industry leaders.

Our project managers are highly qualified and experienced. They work in the field, taking a hands-on approach to their work. They are extremely capable, have great business acumen and build strong relationships with our clients to fully understand their business – so critical to delivering a successful project. Involved from the concept stage, the project managers are able to create an environment where innovation, ideas and effective problem solving are encouraged.

Our real strength is the accumulated expertise of our people, evident in our enviable performance record of achieving nothing less than the best results for all our clients.

Our team approach means the best people are employed on each project and from the outset everyone has a clear understanding of roles, responsibilities and accountabilities. This approach is backed by good systems and proven practices.

Our people are led by Anthony Leighs, whose contribution to the industry has twice been recognised by the New Zealand Institute of Building: he was winner of the Young Achiever Award in 2002 and joint winner of the Supreme Award and Innovation Award in 2005. Anthony is a director of the New Zealand Master Builders' Federation, deputy chair of the Building Research Association of New Zealand Advisory Couincil, and has been a consultant to Government on industry issues.
