National Engineering Manager, Civil & Infrastructure
Invested in our team
CPD is one of our critical investment areas. External training, internal mentoring, shared field exposure, and funding of individual studies aligned with company direction, because the team makes the magic happen, and ongoing learning is fundamental to sustainable technical excellence.

Tamlyn Hay
National Engineering Manager, Structures
Focused on systems
We are an engineering company and a technology company. Engineers access best-in-class tools, Civil 3D, Revit, SAP2000, RS2, and more, through integrated document control and our custom mobile app LDE-Go. Technology lets engineers be engineers.

Chelsea Young
Finance & Operations Manager
Making our corner of the world better
Our dedicated environmental team, Water Sensitive Design and Low Impact Design practices, coastal protection work, and pro-bono support for ecological outcomes charities all reflect a single belief: getting it right for the future matters more than convenience today.

James Gladwin
National Manager, Environmental
Can-do attitude
We have grown significantly but kept the personal touch. A relatively flat structure, bold willingness to explore new opportunities, and a positive attitude grounded in commercial acumen makes us a highly dynamic and trusted partner.

Rob Haskell
National Engineering Manager, Geosciences
Trust in our people
Every team member understands the client, the end game, and their contribution to delivery, from project quoting through QA to invoicing. We empower independent thinkers with supervision and trust, and they care deeply about outcomes.
