About Lendlease

From around the corner to around the globe, they're shaping how modern living looks and feels through design that makes a difference.

How does Lendlease benefit?
In the 2010s construction boom, Australia had a problem: not enough carpenters. Lendlease needed a solution for both the long and short term, so they turned to us.
Since then, MEGT has worked with Lendlease to train hundreds of carpenters, and we plan to train hundreds more. Our job is to find and support new talent–passionate people who aren’t just good with their hands, but are motivated to succeed.
MEGT provides Lendlease with everything they need to recruit apprentices, and ensure their new talent thrives in the workplace. And as their talent’s legal employer, we provide complete flexibility and peace of mind.
From recruitment all the way through to completing their Certificate III in Carpentry, we’re there every step of the way.

Building our next generation of talent
MEGT is proud to support Lendlease to build their capabilities. We regularly place apprentices with Lendlease, giving them valuable hands-on experience and helping them to kickstart long-term careers in the building industry.
Our tailored recruitment service means we identify motivated candidates for Lendlease with genuine passion for their mission.
Our experienced coaches provide intensive support throughout their entire qualification journey, while our advisors keep everyone aligned on goals and expectations, and take care of the paperwork and regulatory requirements.
We also provide professional and reliable advice on every aspect of apprenticeships, based on decades of experience in the building sector. So Lendlease can focus on nurturing their promising new talent, while growing their business.
Apprentices at Lendlease work towards their Certificate III in Carpentry—a nationally recognised qualification.
MEGT is proud to collaborate with Lendlease, Victoria University, Chisholm Institute and NMIT (Melbourne), and we are excited to see what the future holds for our talented apprentices.
