Our Story
Why We Started Venko Group
Venko Group was founded on a simple idea: to combine decades of project management and leadership experience with a fresh, modern approach to project management. After years of leading teams and delivering projects across various industries, both internationally and here in New Zealand, we saw a need for a more agile and practical project partner. We built Venko Group to be that partner; a firm that gets directly involved, applies proven experience, and uses modern methods to ensure your projects succeed.
Our Approach: A Blend of Experience and Innovation
Decades of Leadership, now Grounded in NZ
Our senior leadership brings almost three decades of international experience in leadership and project delivery across multiple sectors. This is complemented by five years of recent, intensive work right here in New Zealand, including time spent working from within a major Council-Controlled Organisation (CCO) and as a consultant delivering projects for councils, CCOs, and private companies. This gives us a unique perspective: we understand the view from the inside and know how to deliver from the outside.
A Fresh, Technical & Practical Perspective
We pair this deep experience with a modern, analytical mindset. With a foundation in Engineering, Fabrication, Construction and Engineering Science, our team brings a practical and data-driven approach to project management. This allows us to excel at process improvement, workflow automation, and clear, insightful reporting. It’s how we ensure that our practical, hands-on work is also efficient, smart, and forward-thinking.
The Advantage of Our Approach
