Downer strives to build an engaged and productive workforce with employees who understand and embrace diversity. Working alongside Te Puni Kokiri, we are lifting the participation levels of our Maori workforce by creating a leadership program designed to enhance Maori representation at all levels of leadership in our business, and in the communities in which we work. 

The leadership program is for Māori, led by Māori, in a marae setting with a focus on Māori embracing their heritage, being proud of who they are, where they come from and stepping into the leadership space.

The purpose of this group is to identify and develop Māori employees at all levels of our business to become influential leaders and role models.
