Help us design the future!

Across Australia and New Zealand, there is an increasing need to support and manage growth in our communities through the built environment. WSP helps public and private organisations to navigate the complexities of infrastructure investments.

Our Advisory experts deliver insight into how infrastructure investments shape economic outcomes, including goods movement, labour markets, productivity, and broader regional competitiveness. We create positive impacts for communities and the environment by defining and shaping future ready projects collaboratively with our clients.

Net zero economic and a fair transition

WSP is already at the forefront of developing net zero solutions for our clients and communities. 

Our economics team contributes to the net zero transmission in three important ways:

• Projects – we shape and position decarbonisation projects so they’re best placed to attract private sector investment or public funding.
• Economic driver – with technological innovation creating new industries and new skill needs, we help clients understand and harness net zero as an economic driver.
• Fair transition – we see the net zero transition as an opportunity for a fast and inclusive economic recovery from COVID-19, one that leaves nobody behind.

If you are motivated to work with clients providing insight into how infrastructure investments shape economic outcomes, including goods movement, labour markets, productivity and broader regional competitiveness, then become a WSP Changemaker!
