Bennett Freehill – Strategic Growth Driven by People and Performance

We’re pleased to be featured in the latest digital edition of Business Eye Magazine, highlighted in the Best Places to Work in Northern Ireland feature.

At Bennett Freehill, our growth has always been underpinned by our people strategy. We’re proud to have won multiple Irish News Workplace & Employment Awards including Best Place to Work, Best Employee Development Programme and Best Wellbeing in the Workplace Strategy. We’ve also been recognised at both the CIBSE and Belfast Telegraph Business Awards.

Investing in our people isn’t just good practice – it’s our competitive advantage.

We operate a fully flexible working policy, provide a private healthcare plan, offer a structured bonus scheme, and invest heavily in professional development – fundamental to creating an environment where talented engineers and professionals can thrive and build meaningful careers.

Managing Partner Cormac Freehill says:

“We’ve always believed our competitive advantage lies in our people. We want to be known not just for the quality of our engineering, but for being an employer of choice in our sector.”

We’re now pursuing a clear growth strategy, positioning ourselves as a partner of choice for complex, sustainability-driven projects. The built environment is evolving rapidly, and our clients need partners who can navigate that complexity with confidence.

We can do that because we’ve built a team that thrives on challenge – and a culture that supports them every step of the way.
