Our legacyJohn Holland

Our legacy

John Holland’s legacy is measured in decades.

Our contribution to communities, cities and society has lasting impacts, so we deliver our projects with exceptional care and commitment.

We’ve been around for a long time — since 1949, to be exact. Over that time, we’ve applied ourselves to literally thousands of projects that benefit millions of people. Getting down to work and getting things done are in our DNA.

Here are some of the many ways we’ve made a difference since our founder, Sir John Holland, built a pioneering Australian engineering and construction company all those years ago.
