About us

We’re a global engineering, management and development consultancy. Everywhere around the world, people’s needs and aspirations are changing, fast. That brings increasing challenge for our clients, as you seek to satisfy your stakeholders, tackle societal issues and deliver your business strategy.

Our network of experts looks at problems from fresh angles and finds opportunities in complexity. They bring together diverse skills, experience and insight, to turn obstacles into sustainable solutions. Our aim: to add value at every stage, for you and the lives you touch every day.

Flexible working at Mott MacDonald

Agile wo​rking empow​​e​rs you to work smarter, ​​giving yo​​u ​​more individual responsibility over how, when and where you work to meet your personal and professional commitments.

Agreed in discussion with your people manager, agile working involves adapting your office working approach on an ad hoc basis to improve your productivity, job satisfaction and work-life balance and support business and client requirements, without changing your employment contract. It includes: 

  • Flexible work times: varying your working hours in line with personal needs like caring responsibilities, appointments, exercise and volunteering  
  • Working from home: for more focus time, a private space for client calls, dealing with home maintenance issues or attending appointments
  • Working from your contracted office: for team collaboration, team and client meetings, building rapport and empathy with colleagues
  • Working from other offices to fit with your professional aims.

Approach to diversity & inclusion

Equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) play an important role not only in creating a workplace where all colleagues can thrive but also in ensuring that the projects we deliver are considering the needs of everyone within the communities they impact. For an outline of the ways in which an ongoing commitment to EDI is fundamental to the success of our business and to the realisation of our wider organisational purpose, we encourage all colleagues to read Mott MacDonald’s global equality, diversity and inclusion strategy “Everyone’s business”.
