Our history, our purpose, our people.

Company history

Founded in 2008 by our Managing Director, Peritas was originally known as Structural Focus and started structural consulting services out of a small house in Northbridge, WA. In 2013 the civil department was established to service the growing demand from our clients in this sector. Since then, our small singular office has expanded to three, and our civil & structural teams have grown to 40 staff across Perth, Melbourne and Brisbane.

Peritas services an award winning portfolio of industrial, mining, land development, infrastructure and commercial projects. The name Peritas is derived from the Latin word Peritus meaning expert, theologian or consultant. It conveys our ability to design better futures differently, which is our philosophy to engineering.

We’re a different kind of engineering consultancy.

Our VISION guides us

Create engineered futures beyond convention.

We want to make a difference, we want to make an impact and leave a legacy. Peritas staff will be fulfilled with mastery of their craft and have autonomy in carrying out purposeful work. They will have the opportunity to be creative and be inspired in everything engineering and more. 

our purpose drives us 

Designing better futures, differently. 

Everything we do is about improving our lives, our workplace, our community, our country and our world. We create better futures for our staff by embracing the individuality of each team member. We give back by providing mindful sustainable design. This is why we do what we do. 

our values are key

The Peritas values underpin all our work and decision making. They inform us at every stage of every project in our mission to deliver the solutions and outcomes our clients deserve. These core values are the heart of our team, philosophy and success.
