About us

At Proterra Group, we’re passionate about strengthening regional communities through smart, practical infrastructure and waste solutions.


Founded in 2008 in Toowoomba, we’ve grown into a trusted partner for local governments and organisations across regional Australia.

We specialise in civil engineering, regional project delivery and waste management, with a strong focus on collaboration, innovation, and community outcomes.

Our team brings together deep local knowledge and technical expertise to deliver tailored solutions that are fit-for-purpose, future-ready, and built to last.
At the heart of Proterra is a people-first culture. We believe in open communication, strong relationships and empowering our staff and clients to succeed. With a reputation for being approachable, practical and dependable, we’re proud to be making a real impact across Australia.

What we do

Proterra Group provides integrated services tailored to the needs of regional communities:

  • Engineering – Infrastructure design, planning, supervision and delivery
  • Major Projects – Disaster recovery, public facilities, roads and rest areas
  • Waste Management – Strategy, compliance, facility design and operations
  • Environment – Condition assessments, GIS support and lifecycle planning


We combine technical skill with a practical mindset — delivering projects that are resilient, cost-effective and ready for the future.

Our approach

We believe the best results come from collaboration. That’s why we work side by side with our clients — listening, problem-solving, and adapting to local conditions. As a regional business, we understand the unique challenges and opportunities in rural communities, and we’re here to help you navigate them with confidence.


Our approach is:

  • Practical – We design and deliver solutions that work in the real world.
  • People-first – We build strong, respectful relationships with our clients and team.
  • Responsive – We move quickly, communicate openly, and follow through.
  • Trusted – We have a track record of delivering high-quality outcomes for clients across regional Australia.

Our people

We’re a tight-knit team of engineers, project managers, facility operators, designers and field staff — supported by a strong leadership group and a workplace culture built on trust, communication and accountability. With 50/50 gender parity in management and a commitment to professional growth and wellbeing, we’ve built a team that reflects the values we bring to every project.
