Our History
SJA is a privately-owned firm established in 1999 by owner and Managing Director, Steve Abbott. Steve started his career in the industry on the tools and rose through the ranks to lead some of the biggest and best construction teams in Australia. During his time leading construction teams he became frustrated with the poor and limited offering available for some of the most critical services needed to ensure the successful delivery of projects. This lack meant projects were at risk of not being delivered on budget or on time, nor realising their full potential – ultimately costing the building industry billions of dollars every year. Steve leveraged his depth of knowledge and expertise to start a project delivery company that could provide the depth and breadth of services required to enable developments to reach their full potential and ultimately advance construction outcomes. Today, Steve leads a team of highly skilled and qualified professionals across the world helping clients advance towards their vision.
