Stantec Australia

We’re Better Together

The Stantec community unites more than 34,000 employees working in over 450 locations across 6 continents.

Stantec empowers clients, people, and communities to rise to the world’s greatest challenges. We are a global leader in sustainable engineering and environmental consulting. Our professionals deliver the expertise, technology, and innovation communities need to manage aging infrastructure, demographic and population changes, the energy transition, and more.

At Stantec, community means everyone with an interest in the work that we do—from our project teams and industry colleagues to our clients and the people our work impacts. These diverse perspectives drive us to think beyond what’s previously been done on critical issues like climate change, digital transformation, and future-proofing our cities and infrastructure.

We are designers, engineers, scientists, project managers, and strategic advisors. Together, we work to advance communities everywhere and redefine what’s possible.

Purpose & Values

We put people first

People are at the heart of everything we do. We listen to and design for the distinct needs of our clients and of those who live and work in the communities we serve. We prioritise the safety of everyone our work touches, and we help our own people set and then surpass their individual goals.

We do what is right

We approach every project as a partnership and are accountable to our clients’ communities, working to strengthen them and make them resilient for whatever the future may hold. Integrity guides what we do, which means that we make the right choice even when it’s the tough choice.

We are better together

We welcome everyone’s contributions, because diverse perspectives create extraordinary results. We draw on our global network to build the right team for each project because when we work together, no problem is too large or complex.

We are driven to achieve

We believe that transformation—in our work and in ourselves—is truly possible. Our entrepreneurial spirit drives us to pursue not only what’s next but also what’s best, so we deliver the excellence that propels communities to success.

Indigenous Relations & Partnerships

We’re always looking for ways to build stronger connections with communities, including in the way we work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We’ve partnered with Supply Nation, a leader that stimulates Indigenous entrepreneurship and business development. Meaningful engagement with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and businesses, and a commitment to the prosperity of their communities, is essential to our promise to design with community in mind.

Leading with inclusion brings our work to the next level

At Stantec, we create opportunity by inviting, embracing, and celebrating differences. We continue to build an inclusive workplace that empowers and inspires, and that attracts and nurtures the very best talent from all over the world. For example, we partner with Australian Network on Disability (AND) and Job Support to help us advance the inclusion of people with disabilities in all aspects of our business.

Driving change

As a global company, we take part in external activities that promote diversity, inclusion, and equity in the broader marketplace. We provide scholarships to minority and Indigenous students and take part in community partnerships to engage with and recruit women, members of visible minorities, Indigenous people, people of diverse ethnic origins, and people with disabilities. This builds a stronger diversity pipeline and greater depth in our talent pool and in the industry at large.

Employee resource groups

An employee resource group (ERG) is a place where you can be yourself and talk about your challenges and experiences with people who have been there too. In an ERG, employees explore development opportunities and improve skills relevant to their business goals. Some of our current ERGs include Women@Stantec, Pride@Stantec, Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) committee, and Persons with Disabilities@Stantec.

Whether you want to manage a part of the business, specialise in project management, or build your technical skills and become a subject-matter expert in your practice, we have the resources and world-renowned experts to get you on the right path.
