Aurecon operates with a huge range of partners and has a strong commitment from their senior leadership, bringing in experts to upskill them. They’re delivering on their authentic promise of diversity and inclusion, which is making a significant impact on their employees.

They recently appointed Tracey Ryan as the NZ Regional Managing Director – a strong and vocal advocate of diversity and inclusion and driver of accelerated change.
