ABOUT US

Since our establishment in 2015, Insitu Group has reshaped the construction industry with a forward-thinking approach deeply rooted in agility and authenticity. This philosophy permeates not only our projects but also the inclusive and supportive workplace we cultivate for the industry’s talent to flourish.

Guided by an engaged executive team, including Charlie Blomley, Paul Smith, Scott O’Connor, Stephen Goodman, Ellen Kafkas and Dario Marino, we’ve harnessed invaluable experience to lead our business. With robust business systems and structures in place, together with meticulous financial management our fiscal position stands on a solid foundation. Over the past nine years we’ve experienced a consistent growth trajectory, culminating in $140 million turnover in 2024 and a projected $150 million in the next financial year. 

Following our successful entry into the Tasmanian market in 2019, we expanded into Queensland, establishing an office in Southport. Led by Dario Marino, we now offer our clients consistent service across the three states.

Insitu Group is made up of over 80 highly skilled people committed to delivering exceptional projects. While primarily live environment specialists in the retail and commercial sectors, we bring a fresh approach, focused on safety, programme and quality, to a broad range of projects outside the retail sector, particularly refurbishments, fit outs and new builds for repeat clients. 

Our approach encapsulates a seamless journey from pre-construction to final handover. Each refurbishment, fit-out, and new build is an endeavor undertaken collaboratively, fostering genuine partnerships with clients and stakeholders alike. This commitment to exceeding expectations defines every project we undertake.

In 2021, Insitu Group achieved a remarkable milestone as a finalist at the Property Council of Australia Innovation and Excellence Awards. Specifically, we were recognised in the Award for Diversity category for companies with less than 250 employees. This honour underscores our commitment to fostering an inclusive and diverse workplace but also validates our ongoing efforts to push boundaries and set new industry standards. As a finalist, we proudly stand among a select group of trailblazers who are shaping the future of the construction industry with innovative practices and unwavering dedication to excellence.

Insitu Group has a team of 80 experienced and motivated individuals across the Eastern Seaboard. Each member of our team plays a vital role in the success of our projects, spanning from the pre-construction team, through the finance and project delivery teams. Our company’s core principles and objectives foster a strong spirit of teamwork and collaboration.

Insitu Group’s leadership team is committed to being an employer of choice. Creating an environment where the industry’s next leaders want to work with us, exploring and enhancing their creativity and skill set in a supportive environment. We encourage our team members to challenge conventional ideas and  introduce innovative problem-solving approaches.

We are committed to providing every member of the Insitu Group with opportunities for growth and development in a nurturing and encouraging environment. We actively engage with industry bodies and encourage our staff to participate in networking, mentoring, and educational opportunities offered by organisations such as:

• Master Builders Victoria
• National Association of Women in Construction
• Green Building Council of Australia
• Property Council of Australia

Insitu Group empower staff to take ownership of their projects and provide them with the opportunity to innovate and resolve on-site challenges with robust support and mentorship. By fostering excellence among our people, we, in turn, cultivate a collaborative culture and enjoy the benefits of working within a high-achieving team. This commitment to our staff translates into exceptional customer and stakeholder focus, resulting in high staff retention rates and consistent team continuity on projects.

Our business’s size and agile culture ensure that our staff have direct access to the leadership team, and we enthusiastically welcome and develop their ideas and input. Insitu Group is genuinely dedicated to providing an inclusive, diverse, and gender-equal workplace. We adopt a flexible approach to working arrangements, reducing barriers for working parents and promoting a balanced work-life environment.

We consider it a privilege to support and motivate our team members, contributing to the development of the next generation of builders.
