OUR PEOPLEWe value each member of our team and seek to encourage and reward their desire to be excellent in all their endeavours. We provide a supportive and friendly environment and operate bureaucracy – free systems that assist our team to succeed. We structure our project work around a buddy system, in order to create a collegial working environment. Mentoring, on the job training and regular attendance at CPD conferences and seminars, ensures that our people are fully conversant with the latest planning trends and the changing regulatory environment. Owing to the nature of our project work, our team members experience high levels of career satisfaction. Each team member is able to take projects from their initial conception through to completion. Considerable pleasure is gained from being part of the development of landmark projects around different parts of New Zealand and seeing these projects brought to fruition. Our company is currently a medium-sized practice employing six full time planning professionals, a full time office manager and support personnel. Team members typically have multiple degree qualifications and have significant experience of working internationally within the planning profession. Our team is headed by the company’s director, David Haines, who is ably supported by other experienced senior planners. Our company maintains excellent relationships with a wide range of specialist resource management sub-consultants throughout New Zealand. Project teams are formed by our company, having regard to client relationships, location and skill sets of sub-consultants. As such, our company is able to assemble the best team for each project on which it is engaged. |
