Description
New Zealand Regional Director, Community Development
Communities don't just appear overnight—they're collaboratively researched, planned, designed, and built to honour the past and with future growth and environmental sustainability in mind. We plan and know the businesses, government, and regulatory agencies we serve because we live in the communities we work.
Our goal? To connect cities, towns, and suburbs and create vibrant spaces for all. We are all about empowering communities and enabling infrastructure. Our talented people are spread across the country and deliver services that cover planning, environmental science, communications and engagement, and landscape architecture. We help bring life to urban centres, create pathways for site preservation/transformation, and develop special places for anyone to grow.
