The annual feature shines the spotlight on the best companies in the region

OVERLAND PARK, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Black & Veatch, a global leader in critical infrastructure solutions, has been selected and will be named among Kansas City’s Best Companies to Work For by Ingram’s Magazine.

Ingram’s Magazine’s “Best Companies to Work For” recognizes workplaces of the highest quality in the Greater Kansas City area—those whose management practices, educational and advancement opportunities, benefits and spirit of teamwork set them apart from tens of thousands of other companies.

“Our inclusion in Ingram’s list is yet another testament to Black & Veatch’s stellar reputation built by a world-class team of global professionals,” said Patrick Hogan, Chief Client Officer at Black & Veatch. “Our portfolio of infrastructure solutions and expertise — combined with our collaborative, inclusive and innovative culture — enables our clients to deliver on goals such as decarbonization, water security and broader access to digital communications.”

The recognition comes on the heels of several accolades that further demonstrate Black & Veatch’s top-rated culture and its position as an industry leader.

We are excited to continue to work together to be the invaluable difference we make to each other, our communities and our clients.”
