About

The Amplius Group brings together some of Australia’s most respected
building services businesses - including AE Smith, Nuvo and Envar - delivering
mechanical, electrical and specialist technical services across critical
infrastructure, commercial, industrial and institutional environments.
Together, the Group combines more than 120
years of industry heritage with a renewed focus on growth, performance, culture

services organisation with strong leadership, operational excellence and
