About AECOM

AECOM is a trusted global infrastructure consulting firm that delivers professional services throughout the project lifecycle, from advisory and planning to design, engineering and construction management. Public and private sector clients rely on AECOM's expertise to help solve their most complex infrastructure challenges related to transportation, buildings, water, energy and the environment.

Our commitment to the Armed Forces Community

With a long history of recruiting military veterans, AECOM currently has at least 200 veterans working in its UK&I operations. The company is proud to count its Chief Executive of Europe and India among that number. AECOM partners with organisations like the CTP, BuildForce and the Officers’ Association to actively seek veterans to join its team.

As an Armed Forces Covenant Gold Alumni, AECOM is committed to supporting veterans transitioning to civilian careers. Beyond defence-focused roles in project management or consulting, AECOM values the leadership, organisational and communication skills that veterans offer. Veterans' ability to effectively engage diverse stakeholders makes them an asset at AECOM and to its clients.

AECOM offers opportunities for veterans across its wide range of services, helping them find roles they are passionate about. Salaries start around £30,000 depending on qualifications, experience and position. Employees work around 40 hours per week, with flexible hybrid work options available. An additional 15 days paid leave is provided for reservists.

By re-signing the Armed Forces Covenant and maintaining its Gold status with the Defence Employer Recognition Scheme, AECOM continues to demonstrate its commitment to veterans. Ongoing career development is facilitated through the AECOM university. Veterans are supported in pursuing professional credentials or further education.

AECOM is redesigning its Armed Forces engagement plan, including amplifying its UK veteran community's voice through a new Armed Forces @ AECOM programme launching this year. AECOM also sponsors military-affiliated sports clubs and events like the Royal Engineers cycling team and veterans triathlon.

At AECOM, veterans can find fulfilling second careers while contributing to solutions that positively impact communities locally and globally. In return, AECOM provides the guidance and support needed to successfully transition out of military service.
