Bechtel Mining & Metals Information

Bechtel is among the most respected engineering, procurement, and construction companies in the world. Today we are designing and constructing some of the most challenging infrastructure on the planet. We stand apart for our ability to get the job done right—no matter how big, how complex, or how remote. Bechtel’s Mining & Metals division has been successfully completing groundbreaking projects around the world for more than six decades, in dozens of locations worldwide, from Australia to Alaska. Our areas of expertise include ferrous, nonferrous, precious, and light metals, as well as industrial materials. Our projects can be found around the globe: first-of-a-kind aluminium smelters in Iceland and Saudi Arabia; the world’s largest copper concentrators in the Andes of Latin America; and vast coal, alumina, and iron ore works for customers in Australia, Canada, and Guinea. And because we have projects in those countries, our people are there too. No matter how challenging a project or how remote its location, chances are we can handle it. With headquarters located in Brisbane, and major permanent offices in Santiago and Montreal, we offer career opportunities across a variety of disciplines and in some of the world’s most striking locations. Our projects help grow local economies and improve the quality of life for communities and people around the world. Time and again our work demonstrates that the only limits on human achievement are those that we place on ourselves.
