Johnstaff is an independent Australian and New Zealand owned consulting practice that specialises in client-side Advisory and Project Management services for the planning and implementation of infrastructure investments.

Johnstaff offers a unique blend of technical expertise, commercial experience and unwavering commitment to continuous improvement that assures our clients of our adaptability and scalability.

This enables us to provide valuable insights across the project lifecycle, from investment and feasibility strategy, business case, construction economics, programming and time management, transaction and governance structuring, design management, procurement, construction administration, commissioning and operations.

We don’t pull precedent off the shelf and call it a job done. Our approach is to collaborate with our clients to think about the business imperatives and the best way to achieve them before jumping to technical solutions.

We seek insight into your business requirements to help you explore how investing in infrastructure can provide a comprehensive solution that enhances operational efficiency, productivity and enterprise value. This includes considering restructuring operations to ensure existing infrastructure assets are leveraged to their maximum potential before embarking on new investments.

Our team is professional, genuine and unpretentious. We think outside the square and use data analysis and other investigative methods to find effective solutions. That’s why we will tell you if we believe there is a better way to meet your goals and deliver value at the most efficient cost, time and quality.
