Kaitiaki Property DEVELOPMENT At the heart of the ongoing success of Kaitiaki Property lies its unique range of services and approach to development as incorporated in its name, says company Managing Director Bryan Perring. “There are very few companies that offer our niche of services” he says. “It gives our clients a chartered formula to deliver projects from ideation to opening,” says Bryan. “At Kaitiaki Property, we are guardians of the land and property we develop. We differentiate ourselves by overseeing the interests of the Nuinga (people) we work with, and the hautaonga (property) we develop. “Our reason for being is to harmonise these interests in our services and maximise value for our clients.” Bryan says that Kaitiaki Property prides itself on providing clients with a seamless experience in property development through its founding core service development management but has expanded over the last nine years to include town planning/resource consenting and architectural/master planning. “We believe that through assisting those organisations and people who wish to develop world-class property projects, we can demonstrate what it means to be a Kaitiaki of the land,” he says. Bryan says Kaitiaki Property’s comprehensive service portfolio, while partnering with engineering specialists, ensures a holistic approach to every project. Bryan started Kaitiaki Property in 2015 with co-director Baden Turley. Both have over 25 years of experience in development and project management. Baden has various property and business qualifications with a corporate real estate and business transformation background. He also owns company Land Development and Engineering (LDE), which offers civil, structural, geotech, environmental services and often partners with Kaitiaki Property. Bryan has previously held prominent roles in corporate real estate, including with Tainui Group Holdings, which saw him lead the development of the successful project, The Base, in Hamilton. His role in Kaitiaki Property spans managing director and lead development director. Bryan’s wife, Heather, leads the Kaitiaki Property town planning and consenting team, and Nicola Palmer leads the architectural and master planning team, jointly contributing over 50 years of experience, which is development focused. Bryan says Kaitiaki Property’s leadership team and professional staff enable it to be at the forefront of delivering outstanding projects and setting new standards.
