SEE Group

What SEE Group does

SEE Group is an Australian vertically integrated civil construction, engineering, mining and fleet services company headquartered in Helensvale, Queensland. Founded in 1988 by brothers Brian and Bruce Turner, the company operates through four divisions: SEE Civil (roads, rail, aviation, bridges, urban development), SEE Mining (haul road construction, site preparation, mining infrastructure), SEE Fleet (heavy plant management, rental and maintenance), and SEE Quarry/Specialised Aggregates (construction aggregates and engineered materials). The group self-performs the majority of its work using a fleet of 441 heavy plant and mining assets, and has completed 587 projects with a further 70 active and approximately $763 million of contracted work in hand. It has a workforce of approximately 835 people spread across offices in Queensland, New South Wales, and Perth, with notable proprietary techniques including the RockBlock retaining wall system and Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer bridge strengthening.

The company's business model is project-based, with revenue derived from competitive tenders and negotiated contracts awarded by government clients (federal bodies such as ARTC, Queensland DTMR, NSW TfNSW, and various local councils) and large private property developers (Stockland, PEET, AVID Property Group, Sekisui House Australia, Frasers Property, Stephens Group). Mining sector work, exemplified by an 11.1 km haul road construction contract for Rio Tinto at the Andoom Bauxite Mine, supplements the government and developer book. Pricing is negotiated per project with multi-year contract durations typical, and revenue is recognised on a project completion basis. Distribution is exclusively direct, via enterprise field sales and tendering; there are no channel partners or third-party resellers. Recent corporate activity has been significant: the company acquired Hall Contracting's civil infrastructure division in February 2025 to enter the Sunshine Coast market, rebranded DMC Quarries to Specialised Aggregates in March 2026, and secured a $67 million minority investment from Ellerston Capital's Industrial Growth Platform in November 2025 to fund fleet expansion, mining capability build-out, and further acquisitions. The company is forecast to exceed AUD $800 million in revenue in FY26.
