Leighton Group Australia – Strategic Projects
Our Story

Forged Through the Nation's Most Demanding Engineering Challenges

Leighton Group Australia was established in the 1980s and grew its reputation through major national infrastructure programs – building deep geotechnical, tunnelling and storage capability and a reputation for reliable delivery on technically demanding works.

From those foundations, Leighton evolved into a full-service contractor capable of handling every phase of a major project. Today, our portfolio includes major healthcare precincts, defence and emergency infrastructure, residential communities, and critical national energy and transport projects.

With decades of combined experience and a national workforce, Leighton brings the depth of resources, technical expertise, and organisational resilience required to deliver the nation's most complex construction programmes.
