Benefits of Working for Amey


Investors in people


We develop our people through unique training and development programmes.
This widens our people’s career options and helps them to succeed with us professionally and personally.

Amey understands the importance of balancing work and home life.
Alongside good salaries and a wide range of benefits we offer excellent maternity and paternity packages and, wherever possible, flexible working.


Our people are the driving force behind our success.
We are committed to helping them achieve their goals at every stage of their career. We are as ambitious for them as we are for ourselves – that’s the cornerstone of our ‘People Promise’.

We’re fast-growing and ambitious.
After more than a decade of continuous growth, we’re one of the most diverse companies in our sector and over the next three years we’re going to expand our workforce by a third.


Growing your career

We consider our people’s needs
We understand the importance of finding a good balance between home and work life. For example we have developed a competitive paternity and maternity package to help support working parents and where possible we help to support flexible working recognising that employees have commitments in and outside of work.

In addition to competitive salaries we have a benefits programme that gives everyone valuable support at every stage of their working life. We’re continually improving this with feedback on what our employees want. Our programme includes flexible benefits, from pensions to gym membership to buying additional annual leave.  Anyone at any level can also join our share incentive scheme, and day-to-day we recognise people’s contributions and efforts with rewards through our Amey Stars recognition programme.

We treat people as individuals
There’s no such thing as a typical Amey person. We welcome a range of abilities, from practicality and problem solving to precision and creativity. That goes for diversity too. We want a workforce as diverse as the communities we serve and value the experience that brings to our business. Whether you’re starting your career or have years of experience, we make sure you have a voice to challenge things and contribute to improvement.

You can make a real difference to your career and the lives of the communities you work in.

We never compromise on safety
We create the safest working environments possible, making them safe and comfortable places to work. Our ‘Target Zero’ programmes mean we expect zero harm - to our people and our customers.
