#Passionate, creative and united — driven to achieve excellence

We recognise the drive and commitment of our talented people who achieve results that are the hallmarks of our long-standing reputation.

Our employees describe the culture at BESIX Watpac as akin to a family. And this much is true. We teach each other, support our peers, and share challenges and rewards. Our culture is built on respect and inclusion where all our people feel valued and supported regardless of background.

We deliberately keep our structure flat so that we are working together effortlessly as one team. This ‘human-sized’ approach means we can remain agile and connected, working smarter to achieve better outcomes. 

The personal touch is embedded in everything we do and is the hallmark of how we treat our employees, clients and stakeholders. 

Around the globe there are 12,000+ of us spread across 26 countries. Here in Australia and New Zealand, our workforce is over 600 employees.

We are connected under one common purpose; to excel in creating sustainable solutions for a better world.
