Testimonials
I have experienced so much
During my time at National Highways, I have experienced so much. My colleagues and managers are extremely supportive and empower me to achieve my goals. The scheme allowed me to study for my APM qualifications and given me the skills to become a future Assistant Project Manager.Support from managers has been fantastic
I have had a variety of placements across the business, working within different teams on multi-million-pound infrastructure projects. Support from managers has been fantastic both on a day-to-day basis, and for long-term development, helping me map out my career.

Culture
We believe that creating a culture where equality, diversity and inclusion are celebrated, helps us attract a diverse range of talented people to work for us. We want to build an inclusive culture that encourages, supports and celebrates these diverse voices, enabling everyone to be themselves and reach their potential. To help us achieve this we have an established group of employee networks that represent employees across National Highways, each led by an executive sponsor. Their goal is to help champion equality, diversity and inclusion across our business.
Values
We value the wellbeing of our people. Looking after their mental health, as much as their physical health, plays a big part in making sure National Highways is a safe and supportive place to work. We encourage our people to talk about their wellbeing, as well as share stories and experiences. We have an Employee Assistance Programme which offers confidential 24/7 support and counselling as well as an internal network of mental health first aiders spread across our offices, control centres and outstations.
