About Us
Success isn’t just about delivering great projects, it’s about creating lasting impact beyond the build. That’s the Apollo Way.

Who We Are
Having fun and building unique stories sits at the heart of Apollo, and has since day one.
When Craig Waghorn and Paul Lloyd started Apollo back in 2001, the first thing they said was, “We’re going to have fun”. After experiencing their own fair share of uninspiring workplaces, Craig and Paul were determined to make Apollo different.
Today, Apollo has grown into one of New Zealand’s most trusted design and build specialists, that still puts people first. We build genuine relationships and high-performance facilities hand-in-hand, and ultimately its our people that make us great.

The Apollo Way
At Apollo we're unapologetically 'people first' in everything we do. We call this 'The Apollo Way'.
Centred around the 5Cs of Clients, Consultants, Contractors, Colleagues and Communities, we value relationships over transactions every time. These principles guide how we work, who we partner with, and the impact we leave behind in our communities.
We believe success isn’t just about delivering buildings on time and on budget, it’s about adding genuine value and creating lasting impact for everyone involved.
One of the 5Cs that we're especially committed to is the way we show up for the communities we live and work in. Find out more below.
Our Priorities
The way we work matters just as much as what we build. From supporting our communities to reducing environmental impact and making sure everyone gets home safely, our priorities are grounded in doing the right thing and leaving a positive impact long after the project is complete.
