Our People

PEOPLE-FIRST FOCUS

Henderson has grown from a three-person team in 1970 to 1,000 employees today, but our values have never wavered. We’ve always been committed to providing an open and inclusive workplace that helps people reach their full potential – both as engineers and individuals.

People can be themselves here. In fact, we’re known in the industry for our people-first focus. Our founder, Fran Henderson, set the tone 50 years ago, and our leadership continues to support a family like atmosphere that welcomes all. Our vision is to build a better world. We believe that starts with embracing diversity, which is why we’ve taken steps to ensure all Henderson employees have a voice and opportunities to grow. Our projects would be nothing without our people – and, not to brag, but our people are pretty great.

Career Opportunities

JOB OPENINGS

In a world of stereotypes about engineers, we break them. We love working together and being social. We connect with our clients as people rather than projects. This helps us do what we do: great work. At Henderson, you can create a diverse portfolio of project experience, but more importantly, you can build a career that’s meaningful, rewarding, and fun.

INTERNSHIPS

Looking for a summer internship where you can get a taste of the real world? We’ll give you the chance to put your academic knowledge to practical use on active projects with great mentors. Plus, you’ll have fun: you’ll be with a group of your peers from around the country, taking part in activities throughout the summer. And we won’t ask you to get coffee.

Training/Development

FUNDAMENTALS TRAINING

A strong background in engineering fundamentals is essential for success. We want our employees to be the best in the industry. Our training programs will get you there. Henderson has developed hundreds of complete classroom courses that focus on everything from systems design to management best practices.

Every new employee at Henderson undergoes a six-month fundamentals training program. Weekly classes take each new employee through the important topics in the engineering discipline that matches their focus. This experience also facilitates personal interaction with the technical experts in the company, strengthening the network of personal relationships between our engineers.

The focus is on the employee. That’s why every learning opportunity we conduct is open for anyone to attend. 

 

Projects & Expertise

WE BRING BUILDINGS TO LIFE

As experts in a wide range of enginering services, we design building systems for the end user. Our projects range from grocery, healthcare, and retail environments, to education facilities and world-class sports and entertainment venues.
