Balfour Beatty is a world-class infrastructure group operating in construction services, professional services, support services and infrastructure investments. We work in partnership with our customers principally in the UK, the US, South-East Asia and the Middle East, who value the highest levels of quality, safety and technical expertise.
Our key infrastructure markets include transportation, (roads, rail and airports); social infrastructure (education, specialist healthcare, and various types of accommodation); utilities (water, gas and power transmission and generation); and commercial (offices, leisure and retail).
Pay and benefits
Pay and benefits reflect good local practices, reward individual and collective performance,
and ensure that all applicants and employees receive equal treatment, regardless of age, origin, gender, disability, sexual orientation, marital status, religion or belief.
Promotion and development
Formal performance and development reviews allow employees to identify and agree development objectives with their managers. A comprehensive organisation and people review process links the aspirations, talents and development plans of individuals to the anticipated future needs of the business. Where possible, we seek to promote from within. As part of our talent pipeline, we have recruited more than 500 graduates in the past three years.
Company culture
An open, challenging and participative environment; to enable all staff to use their talents and skills to the full, through encouragement, training and development; to fully communicate the objectives and performance of the group and the opportunities and challenges facing it.
Diversity, social responsibility
Balfour Beatty has an explicit commitment to fulfilling its responsibilities to all its stakeholders. The long-term success of our business depends not just on the continuing delivery of the highest-quality technical skills and disciplines, but also demonstrable commitment to and achievement in fulfilling our wider responsibilities.
Environment and sustainability
Balfour Beatty aims to deliver, manage and own sustainable infrastructure that helps communities and individuals live within environmental limits. We will work with our customers and engage with our employees and our supply chain, as well as the communities in which we operate, to achieve this.
Innovation
Tackling the most difficult and complex projects as a matter of routine and working in long-term partnership with major customers has a big impact in determining the group’s culture. In finding solutions to one customer’s challenge, the group often pioneers new ways of working and new techniques, which improve the solutions we can offer to others. Balfour Beatty has a learning culture and applies innovative techniques in creating customer value.
