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.
Downer NZ is a division of Downer Group; who employs approximately 53,000 people across more than 300 sites, primarily in Australia and New Zealand but also in the Asia-Pacific region, South America and Southern Africa.
Creative people together transforming the world is our vision. It reflects our culture, our aspirations and our purpose - to make everyday better.
We are diverse enough to bring a wide range of perspectives, skills and disciplines to every client and every challenge. We're also a team that understands the power of working together to bring resourceful, smart solutions from our collective experience and insights. And this holds true whether we’re working on a small library for a local community or a multi-site expansion programme for a global food and beverage giant.
We have more than 4,000+ employees in 25 offices around the world. While our experience has been over 100 years in the making, it is the fresh talent we're nurturing, the innovative thinking we're developing and the connections that we're forging that get us most excited for the future.
Fletcher Building has proudly called New Zealand home since 1909, and today, we employ over 12,500+ people across New Zealand, Australia, and the South Pacific.
