Our collective and individual behaviour is underpinned by a shared vision, mission and values
Our enduring strength and industry-leading position are founded on an ownership model, culture and unifying core values that differentiate us from competitors.

Mott MacDonald is wholly owned by its employees – currently one in seven of our staff is a shareholder and that proportion is growing annually. We are also strongly cash positive and therefore entirely free from the influence of either external shareholders or financial institutions. This allows us to make decisions that are in the long-term interests of our customers and staff.

Our ownership and reward system gives every employee a vested interest in achieving the best possible outcomes on the projects they undertake. Globally, staff enjoy the same benefits of employee ownership. Everything we earn is returned to our staff, rewarding them for their efforts in supporting the success of clients.

Our long-term focus is supported by our system of governance. Mott MacDonald is collegiate in style, with strategic decisions made collectively by our management, through consensus. The board is answerable to our employee shareholders, safeguarding against actions that may be perceived as not being for the collective good. It is the Board’s remit to protect the firm’s long-term stability and vitality.

Mott MacDonald’s ownership, structure and management are common around the globe. Each of our offices is locally managed and substantially staffed by nationals of that country. At the same time, every part of the business can call on the resources of the entire Group, enabling us to deliver locally tailored services and solutions to world class standards.
