Bureau Veritas strives to be an employer of choice. We feel there are three main dimensions of working for Bureau Veritas that make us an employer of choice.

1. Our growth strategy - Bureau Veritas has acquired some of the most respected businesses in our service lines. We feel our acquired companies maintain some of the best cultural aspects of their entrepreneurial heritage while adding the benefits of working for a larger company. Our acquisitions are industry leaders, so our employees get to work with technical leaders in our industries. Acquisitions are a great opportunity for us to participate in shaping the future of our company and our industry. These companies now are part of the Bureau Veritas family:

• Clayton Group Services
• Graham Marcus
• Berryman & Henigar
• Robert W. Hunt Company
• NATLSCO Risk & Safety
• OneCIS
• BTC Laboratories
• U.S. Laboratories
• Unitek Technical Services
• Testing Engineers of San Diego
• National Elevator Inspection Services
• AQSR Certification
• ECA - Quality Verifications, Inc.
• Guardian Inspection Services, Inc.

2. The opportunity to grow and develop in your career. Professional success at Bureau Veritas is not a result of tenure. While we value the significant length of service held by so many of our employees, technical and professional competence, leadership behaviors and hard work are the keys to success. Most of our employees would say that Bureau Veritas provides a demanding working environment. Our clients demand a lot from us, and we in turn demand a lot from our employees.

3. Our values - At Bureau Veritas, we take our values seriously. Two of our values that shape how we treat our employees are respect for all individuals and transparency. They combine with our values of integrity and ethics and impartial counsel and validation to create a culture of technical engagement and open communication. Emails get answered and phone calls get returned, regardless of level within the organization. It’s part of our culture here in North America.
