Great place to work

Atkins is one of the world's largest employers of professionally-qualified staff, with operations focused in a number of key geographical markets, including UK and Europe, Middle East and India, North America, and Asia Pacific.

With revenues of £1.5 billion (2008/9) and around 16,000 employees, we have been the largest engineering consultancy in the UK for the last ten years (NCE Consultants File 2009). Our status amongst our peers has been confirmed by a number of recent independent surveys:

  • The world's eleventh largest global design firm (ENR 2009)
  • The fourth largest multidisciplinary consultancy in the world by number of employees, and the largest multidisciplinary consultancy in Europe by turnover (Svensk Teknik och Design 2008)
  • No. 1 in Building magazine's Top 250 Consultants survey (2009)
  • No. 10 in the Sunday Times Best Big Companies To Work For (The Sunday Times 2009)

Comments from our people:

  • “Our success has been down to a number of factors, not least the passionate support of senior managers. We also focus on talent, offering benefits and a working environment to attract and retain the best people.”
    Natalie, Associate and Principal Architect
  • “I believe joining Atkins was the best move I could have made. The shift to the consultancy side has delivered the challenges I desire and the experience of working for a large organisation with offices around the world has more than lived up to expectations.” 
    Nicholas, Assistant Geotechnical Engineer
  • “I have received excellent support during my on-the-job training and have been given responsibility from day one. I have been allowed to work on my own, with advice available from experienced colleagues where needed.”
    Helen, Assistant Planner
  • “I have received excellent technical training to keep me up to date with product developments and familiarise me with new technology.”
    Ricky, Service Desk Lead Analyst
  • “The attitude here is to get the right people and then provide whatever training they need, rather than just recruit from those who ‘tick all the boxes'.”
    Heather, Recruitment and Training Administrator
