NRW Holdings is a construction and mining contractor with its headquarters in Perth, Western Australia.

History

NRW Holdings was established in 1994 in Kalgoorlie by Jeffrey William McGlinn & Nicholas John Ross Silverthorne with its first contract at the Granny Smith Gold Mine.[1][2] Over the next few years it expanded, gaining further contracts at other gold and iron-ore mines in Western Australia including multiple contracts in the Pilbara for BHP, Fortescue Metals Group and Rio Tinto. In 1998 it founded a transport division.[3]

In 2007, NRW began its first overseas contract at the Simandou mine in Guinea and was listed on the Australian Securities Exchange.[4] In 2011, it commenced its first coal contract in Queensland.[3] In 2016, a NRW / Salini Impregilo joint venture was awarded a contract to build the Forrestfield–Airport Link in Perth.[5] This was completed in 2022, two years later than planned.[6]
