We are working with a leading New Zealand national firm, highly regarded for its work in the energy and electricity sectors, as well as its strong reputation in major urban development and infrastructure projects.

The firm’s ranked Planning team advises on complex re-zoning proposals — from industrial, rural, or open-space land to high-intensity business or residential use — and on consenting major vertical developments (commercial, residential, hotel, and retirement projects) and large-scale infrastructure schemes.
