significant projects, including over A$1 billion of rail work. Domenic also led Fulton Hogan’s first major project in
Queensland, expanding the company’s construction footprint beyond Victoria, and was one of the company‘s first
Australian alliance leaders. During his 16 years with Fulton Hogan, he has worked on diverse projects that have given
