Company Overview

We design with community in mind

We’ve been serving our clients and communities in Aotearoa New Zealand for over 125 years. Starting in Ōtepoti Dunedin in 1898, Stantec’s presence in Aotearoa began with Edward Roberts, an engineer involved in everything from ship repairs to gold dredging design to the building of the Wingatui Viaduct. Today, Stantec’s office in Dunedin is one of many. With a team of more than 800 people working in the main cities and across regional offices throughout the motu (country), our engineers, designers, scientists, and project managers deliver sustainable and inventive solutions to help our communities thrive.

We begin at the intersection of client relationships, creativity, and community, translating our clients’ visions into valued results—innovating and collaborating towards shared success. 

While we deal with today’s challenges, we work towards an equitable, prosperous tomorrow—looking at how we deliver clean growth and resilient infrastructure, support radical changes in our economy, and meet the needs of future communities.

We connect to projects on a personal level and advance the quality of life across the globe

Community

When we say community, we don’t just mean the neighbourhoods that people call home. We mean everyone and everything with a stake in the work that we do—from our Stantec and industry colleagues to the clients we collaborate with and the people and places we impact. Whether creating, sustaining, or revitalising a community, we bring diverse perspectives together toward shared successes. Although we help to create physical communities, our ultimate goal is to create something far more meaningful—a sense of community.

Creativity

Knowing that transformation is truly possible inspires us to approach every situation with a fresh perspective. Our inventive and collaborative approach to problem-solving helps bring big ideas to life through creative solutions. From designs that strike the perfect balance between function and aesthetics, feats of engineering that redefine what’s possible, or project management approaches that deliver results, we strive for outcomes that transcend the challenges they solve and shape the communities we serve for the better.

Client relationships

We’re better together. This belief shapes how we collaborate with our clients, our partners, and our communities. We listen so we can deeply understand our clients’ needs, communicate with purpose so we maintain alignment, and remain open and flexible so we never miss an opportunity to strengthen a project and positively transform a community.
