Bechtel marked the opening of the office at an event with business partners and government officials. The 8,000-square-foot office includes space for employees in disciplines such as engineering, procurement, project controls, and construction management.
“The thriving business and high-tech landscape in the Metro Phoenix area allows Bechtel to attract top talent as we design and build projects for our customers,” said Catherine Hunt Ryan, President of Bechtel’s Manufacturing & Technology global business unit. “By focusing our technical expertise in Chandler, Bechtel will deepen our collaboration and dedication with partners engaged in new capital projects in the semiconductor, batteries, and battery materials markets.”
“Chandler has built a reputation over several decades as a manufacturing and technology hub, and we are thrilled to welcome Bechtel to our city,” said Chandler Mayor Kevin Hartke. “Bechtel is one of the largest construction and engineering companies in the United States. This beautiful new office will support the exciting economic development growth happening throughout our community and the region.”
Bechtel will maintain its existing U.S. and international office locations, including an office in Glendale, Arizona.
