The breadth of our services and the depth of our expertise means our clients come to us for solutions from A to Z. It also means the growth opportunities for our employee-owners are nearly endless, regardless of discipline or degree.

Burns & McDonnell has 10 global practice divisions and an operations department. We are always exploring options for expansion. Below is a description of each division's work, as well as what type of employee-owners work on its projects.

Aviation & Facilities
Projects range from airport pavement and terminals to high-tech military facilities and office buildings. We design and build nearly everything in the aviation industry — except the planes themselves. Typical disciplines/degrees hired: civil/structural engineers, architects, mechanical engineers, computer-added drafting and design (CADD) experts and electrical engineers.

Business & Technology Services
Subgroups include Management Services, Energy Services and Information Technology, but this group provides solutions through GIS, forecasting, modeling, energy audits and more. Opportunities exist for candidates with degrees or experience in: computer engineering, computer science, electrical and mechanical engineering, geography/geographic information systems, and economics and finance.

Construction/Design-Build
This group turns many of our designs into built reality, working with designers to create the final project. Our design-build projects require a range of disciplines and skills, including: project management; construction engineering; estimating; scheduling; cost control; procurement; and safety and health.

Energy
Burns & McDonnell is at the forefront of our nationwide effort to rebuild our energy infrastructure, from designing and building new baseload coal-fired power generation plants, to high-voltage transmission networks required to meet today's high reliability standards, to helping clients utilize energy more efficiently. We require CADD expertise and many engineering disciplines, including: civil/structural, mechanical, electrical, chemical and piping.

Environmental
Whether it's remediation work, environmental studies or emergency response efforts, this group needs such disciplines as civil engineering, environmental engineering, geology, environmental science, geological engineering and CADD.

Environmental Studies & Permitting
Guiding our clients through ever-changing and challenging regulatory efforts or finding the right place to site a transmission structure are two of the primary efforts of the specialists in this area. Frequently, we look for environmental scientists, biologists, atmospheric scientists, chemical engineers, archaeologists and botanists.

Healthcare & Research Facilities
Hospitals, laboratories and research facilities are the focus of our newest practice area. Architects lead the way, but these projects also need electrical, mechanical and architectural engineers, as well as CADD experts.

Infrastructure
Water and transportation projects are the foundation of our company and our country. Key disciplines: CADD and many engineering majors, including civil/structural, environmental, mechanical, electrical and chemical.

Process & Industrial
Whether the client operates a refinery, an automobile assembly plant or a food manufacturing facility, we need expertise in chemical engineering, CADD, electrical engineering, piping, mechanical engineering, and structural engineering.

Transmission & Distribution
Power lines keep the country running, and we're proud to be a part of some of the biggest efforts to enhance and secure the electrical grid. We need civil/structural engineers, electrical engineers and CADD experts.

Operations
Support departments keep things running smoothly. Like all companies, we need experienced marketing personnel, accountants, human resources professionals, administrative assistants, computer experts, graphic designers, technical writers and more.
