Our ambition is to build a better New Zealand which we do through the strength of the relationships we hold and develop. This is underpinned by our purpose and our four pillars: safety, delivery, relationships and thought leadership.
Our history in New Zealand began with the formation of the Public Works Department in 1870 and the New Zealand Post office in 1880. For over a century, we’ve been helping to shape New Zealand by successfully collaborating with asset owners to build, maintain and operate their assets with a whole-of-life approach.
We do this through the support of a highly capable, skilled and committed people and by engaging a network of trusted and long-term sub-contractors, suppliers and like-minded organisations and partners. Our 10,000 employees are looking after New Zealand from Kaitaia to Invercargill in more than 120 locations across the country.

Mace Consult launched as a new and independent business on 5 March 2026, through a carve-out from Mace Group.
Mace Consult and Mace Construct are now two independent businesses following the completion of a majority investment in Mace Consult by Goldman Sachs Alternatives.
Mace Consult will continue to grow and develop under the Mace name, leveraging the strength of the brand’s global reputation in delivering exceptional programme and project delivery.
Mace Construct will rebrand later in 2026.
Until Mace Construct rebrands, we will continue to post news, views and achievements from both businesses on this LinkedIn account.
Learn more about the transaction and what this means for the future of Mace Consult on our website.
