Webinar: Opportunities for the future of NZ infrastructure

The New Zealand Infrastructure Commission says Aotearoa’s construction workforce needs to grow by almost 60,000 employees across the next 30 years if we are to keep up with demand. This growth will create a number of opportunities for offshore Kiwi looking to return home and leverage their experience in the sector. It also provides a chance for New Zealand to do things differently to increase productivity.

To inform those wishing to return to Aotearoa and to the infrastructure sector, Kea and Holmes Consulting hosted a webinar which touched on:

  • How technology, sustainability and culture can all work together to increase the productivity of the sector. 
  • Where the skill shortages are within the industry and why offshore talent is important
  • Understanding the infrastructure industry has changed over the past decades when it comes to embracing cultural and tradition

A huge thank you to Wayne Juno, Senior Leader in the Civil Structures team and Lidia Cooper  Team Leader of the Structures team at Holmes Consulting, Jane Henley Founder of Growthlines Limited and Amos Kamo Director of Policy and Performance at Kāinga Ora – Homes and Communities for joining the conversation!

Watch the full webinar recording below.
