The People Behind the Projects

Our team is excited by the challenges of tomorrow and the opportunities they bring to build a better world.

Driven by Excellence and Defined by the Quality of Our People  

Global customers need teams with global perspectives — teams capable of performing at the highest levels, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, and producing world-changing results. At Bechtel, that’s what our people are known for, and it’s what sets us apart.  

With a presence in 33 countries, we have colleagues from different backgrounds, cultures, and geographies who bring a unique combination of highly specialized skills, experience, and unmatched expertise. Yet, for as diverse as our people are, they share a common trait: the relentless pursuit of excellence.  

We invest in attracting world-class talent, and we foster it on the job. Through our culture of learning, collaboration, and growth, we empower our team members to become the best at what they do. From engineers and project managers to skilled craft professionals and construction experts, our talented colleagues are able — and excited — to achieve what others can’t. 

We Set the Standard

Our team of experts works alongside customers to turn their boldest ambitions into reality. Our global centers of excellence are specialized hubs of technical expertise, powered by the brightest minds in the industry. These centers deliver tailored services and innovative solutions across critical sectors, including technology, renewable energy, bulk materials handling, LNG, nuclear safety, supply chain engagement, aviation, and more. 

Our technical experts are at the forefront of innovation, consistently setting industry standards. For example, our aviation experts have contributed to the International Air Transport Association’s Airport Development Reference Manual, the industry’s definitive guide for airport planning and development for over 50 years. And our Welding and Applied Technology Center in Houston, Texas, is a world-renowned hub that provides cutting-edge tools and industry-recognized training, ensuring our teams are prepared to solve our customers’ toughest challenges while advancing their own expertise.

Partnering with Bechtel means access to a network of industry-leading specialists whose knowledge and ingenuity deliver value and ensure the success of your most complex projects.   

Leading for the Long Term

Bechtel’s history is one of constant evolution. Since our founding in 1898 by Warren A. Bechtel, our leadership team has balanced maintaining a values-driven culture with staying one step ahead in a changing world. This dual focus inspires us to pursue purposeful work and leverage our industry-leading capabilities to deliver the greatest impact. 

Today, our leaders continue to uphold the highest standards for safety, integrity, and excellence, while pushing Bechtel to adapt, innovate, and meet customers where they are. By successfully overseeing mission-critical projects, they ensure Bechtel — and the world’s infrastructure — is built to last.
