Shaping The Future of New Zealand

Anderson Lloyd’s Energy, Construction and Projects team is growing, and the timing is not coincidental.

The work coming through this sector right now is some of the most consequential in the country: major renewables, large-scale infrastructure, complex construction.

We are looking for lawyers who are ready to be at the centre of it.

Join Our Team

The energy transition is generating the most complex legal work this sector has seen in a generation.

Renewable energy projects, grid infrastructure, large-scale construction procurement, project finance – the pipeline is deep and our team has been at the forefront of this work for years.

We are now building the capacity to stay there.
