Main business activity
Naylor Love is a leading commercial construction company in New Zealand. We have a substantial negotiated and return client book supported by a competitive presence in the tender market.
Naylor Love people
Naylor Love is an employer of choice. We are committed to developing our people with many exciting benefits, including attractive remuneration packages, company health schemes, ongoing vocational development and excellent career progression opportunities with operations located throughout New Zealand.
Ensuring the health and safety of our people is a primary focus at Naylor Love. Our safety programme holds the highest New Zealand government accreditation along with only two other commercial construction companies, and Naylor Love’s accident rates sit well under industry tolerances, which are currently met by only 4% of all industry employers.
A unique approach to construction
Naylor Love is a dedicated project management and construction company. This is all we do. We deliver leading-edge design management, pre-construction planning and value engineering, and self-perform carpentry and concrete trades wherever practicable. The company brings a collaborative and refreshing approach to construction in New Zealand. We benchmark our performance against both New Zealand and international industry service standards, focusing on our performance around quality, innovation and a can-do attitude towards achieving our clients’ goals. This underpins our strategic objective of being measurably ‘the best construction company in New Zealand’ and the prestigious contracts and excellence awards Naylor Love has won in recent years suggest that we are on the right track.
Our projects are varied and have included shopping centres, community swimming pools, schools and universities, hotels and luxury accommodation, refits of historic buildings and museum exhibitions.
The company is a member of the New Zealand Green Building Council and is a founding supply chain member of the New Zealand Construction Clients’ Group, to promote and nurture the practice of ‘Constructing Excellence in New Zealand’. We benchmark all aspects of our performance; not least safety, planning methodology, defect-free outcomes and ESD (environmentally sustainable design).
Naylor Love was founded in New Zealand in 1910 as two separate entities, Love Construction Company and W.E. Naylor Ltd, which joined forces in 1969. In its 98-year history, the company has played a major part in the development of New Zealand, with many of our projects now regarded as historic landmark buildings.
