MILWAUKEE, WI — HNTB, an infrastructure solutions firm, has been named Employer of the Year by the Wisconsin Chapter of WTS International. This recognition highlights HNTB’s commitment to advancing women in the transportation industry, fostering an inclusive and supportive work environment, and developing future transportation leaders.

“We are deeply honored by this recognition, which underscores our commitment to a diverse and inclusive culture,” said TJ Dougherty, PE, HNTB’s Wisconsin Office Leader and Vice President. “Empowering women and promoting equity are essential for driving innovation and sustainable growth. HNTB, together with our valued clients, is dedicated to advancing this mission and supporting the next generation of transportation professionals.”

HNTB was selected for its dedication to advancing the transportation industry by fostering opportunities for women. Key criteria included the number of women in leadership positions, offering career development for female employees, and supporting WTS Wisconsin.

In addition, Kathleen Matson, HNTB’s Great Lakes Division Delivery Officer, has been honored as Member of the Year by the Wisconsin Chapter of WTS International.
