About us
Since Vulcan was founded in 1995, we have become Australasia’s highest performing metals distributor and processor. From an ambitious start-up, to one of New Zealand’s largest privately held businesses, to our successful listing on the ASX and NZX – our sustained growth can be attributed to our superior service and dedication to continuous improvement across every facet of our business – and this always starts with people.

“Our goal is to be the best practice industrial distributor –
that's how we benchmark ourselves.”
We work a little differently
We may be big, but we aren’t corporate. Since inception we’ve operated a flat structure model based on the belief that everyone is equally as important to our success. Our people are active decision makers and empowered with autonomy within their roles. We’ve found that this keeps our business agile, efficient and effective and our employees feeling trusted, valued and fulfilled.
Who we are
We’re a diverse bunch of relaxed yet professional, ambitious yet open-minded people who enjoy what we do. We aim to foster a culture where everyone at Vulcan feels they belong and what makes them unique is understood, valued and celebrated. We believe that fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace not only leads to happier employees but is integral to our success. We seek excellence over average and aren’t afraid to step off the beaten track to find better ways of doing things. We enjoy the autonomy that comes with our roles, and always have time for a laugh.
