As a result of its contract through Balfour Beatty Vinci (BBV) on Phase One of HS2, Mott MacDonald has already created 300 jobs, set to double in 2019, with 35% of these jobs going to graduates.

Mott Macdonald is working with BBV on the HS2 scheme design to plan for the construction of HS2 on the West Midlands section of the route. So far 25 apprentices are working as part of the current workforce of 300, getting on the job training to enhance their future career opportunities.
