LANG O'ROURKE

Laing O’Rourke was formed in 2001, bringing together the experience of the construction arm of John Laing Plc whose origins stretched back to 1848 and R O’Rourke & Son, a regionally based formwork and concrete specialist, founded in 1978.

In the two decades since it was founded, Laing O'Rourke has expanded into new markets and strengthened its project delivery capabilities; pioneering modern methods of construction, adopting purposeful technologies, delivering certainty for clients and constructing some of the most iconic projects in the world.

Our purpose; which is to push the boundaries of what's possible in service of humanity; together with our values of care, integrity and courage are what make us unique in who we are and they drive the impact we want to have as a business in the world. At our core is the ambition to be a force of positive change in our industry.

Our strong culture stems from our family ownership and a passion to deliver projects that improve the lives of the communities they serve.

Our Origin Story, told by our own people, connects the threads of our past to the ambitions of our future and it shows that our purpose and values matter now more than ever. They provide our reference point to test our decision making and actions against, and they inspire us, as they always have done, to find better and new ways to deliver.
