Why Mykra

  • About

Established in 2003, Mykra has grown from a small asset services business into a team of more than 60 people delivering maintenance, asset services and commercial construction projects across South Australia.

Family-owned and operated by the Cox family – who have been in the construction industry for more than 70 years – Mykra supports clients across the full lifecycle of commercial buildings and assets, from day-to-day maintenance and operational works through to complex refurbishments, remediation projects and new construction.

Today, Mykra works across a broad range of sectors including private development, defence, education, local government, health and aged care, facility management and community infrastructure.

Construction, maintenance, refurbishment and remediation delivered through one integrated business.

Forward-thinking delivery

Continued investment in technology, reporting systems, AI, Power BI, automation and operational innovation to improve project delivery and communication.

Unlike many construction businesses structured around individual projects, our teams are structured around long-term client relationships.

This approach creates stronger continuity, better communication, and teams that genuinely understand the people and environments they work with.

It also shapes the internal culture of our business. Many Mykra team members have built long careers within the company, progressing from graduates and junior operational roles into leadership positions over time. We are proud to have achieved Great Place to Work certification through independent employee surveys and continue to invest heavily in the development of our people through graduate pathways, leadership development and ongoing professional training.

Mykra’s culture is built around doing work properly, being upfront and finding practical solutions when things get complex.

We place strong value on accountability, trust, humility and on people who genuinely care about the quality of their work. That mindset influences how projects are delivered, how subcontractors are treated and how relationships are managed with clients.

Over time, we’ve built the kind of company that:

  • Clients want on their projects
  • Subcontractors want to work with
  • Great people want to build their careers with
