Mott MacDonald has reported a year of solid performance for 2025 with a gross revenue of £2.48bn and a pre-tax profit of £107.8M.
The figures reflect the business’ ability to respond with agility amidst a backdrop of economic uncertainty, technological innovation and shifting geopolitical dynamics. Throughout the year, significant progress was made on key initiatives to evolve the business, while continuing to build its resilience and position for future growth.
In a milestone moment for Mott MacDonald and its 20,000 people, the business announced it was enhancing its employee-ownership model in 2025, enabling all employees to have a stake in the business and voice in shaping its future.
The business also further accelerated its digital ambition, investing in partnerships with key technology providers including Microsoft, while launching its own generative AI assistant “Every Mott MacDonald Answer” – EMMA – to democratise knowledge and best practices for its employees.
Across 2025, Mott MacDonald continued to act as a trusted partner on some of the world’s most complex infrastructure projects spanning transport, energy, water, defence and security, and buildings infrastructure. This includes achieving major project milestones on Changi Airport Terminal 5 in Singapore, for National Grid Electricity Transmission, the Gowanus Canal in Brooklyn New York and the reopening of the Sydney Fish Market earlier this year.
The business secured positions on AMP8 frameworks with 10 water companies in the UK as well as on East-West Rail. It was also appointed to advise Matarat Holding on airport development across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, is supporting the modernisation programme for Toronto Pearson Airport in Canada and is working with the Australian Department of Defence on its Base Services Transformation Program.
James Harris, executive chair of Mott MacDonald, said: “Enhancing our employee ownership model in 2025 was a real milestone moment for the business. It means that having delivered a solid performance, our employees benefit from the success we achieve together. Our people are at the heart of our business and this extends to our approach to technology and AI which we further accelerated across the year. We are well placed for the future and to continue delivering long-lasting value for clients and the communities they serve.”
