Company Profile
Mott MacDonald
Company Overview
We’re a global engineering, management and development consultancy focused on guiding our clients through many of the planet’s most intricate challenges.
We employ over 16,000 people, delivering projects in Africa, Asia Pacific and Australasia, Europe, the Middle East, North and South America, and South Asia. But you get the kind of openness, friendliness and personal commitment you might associate with a much smaller business.
Mott MacDonald’s universe of creative thinkers is centred around our clients – you. We’re joined-up across sectors and geographies, giving you access to exceptional breadth and depth of expertise and experience. Over 80% of the work we do is for long-term or repeat clients, which we think underlines the great service we offer.
Company History
Our long-term strategy to provide an all-inclusive engineering, management and development consultancy on a global scale features organic growth and planned acquisitions to increase our geographic spread, expand our range of services and introduce new expertise – all geared towards meeting the evolving needs of our customers around the world.
The Mott MacDonald Group was formed in 1989 with the merger of two long-established and well-known international engineering consultancies – Mott, Hay & Anderson, renowned for its contribution to transportation engineering, and Sir M MacDonald & Partners, distinguished by a long tradition of water-related projects.
This landmark union began our progression towards the dynamic and continually evolving organisation we are today, now operating from 180 principal offices in 50 countries across 12 core sectors - buildings, communications, education, environment, health, industry, international development, oil and gas, power, transport, urban development and water.
Our journey so far
Much of our growth has been organic, with key acquisitions accelerating our development into one of the most diverse multinational, multiskilled consultancies.
Here we highlight some of the companies to have played a key part in our journey so far. These include our most recent contributors – Habtec Engenharia Ambiental providing us with a strong base for growth in Brazil, South Africa’s PD Naidoo & Associates, bringing a multi-sector business to drive our expansion across Sub-Saharan Africa and lastly Bentley, a design and build company serving the UK water industry which joined us as a natural progression in our highly successful 15 year partnership, Mott MacDonald Bentley.
