Inclusion & Belonging

We live inclusion

We put people at the heart of our business. We embrace different perspectives, collaborating to make a positive impact. Through an unparalleled focus on inclusion with a diverse team of visionaries, thinkers and doers, we build trust – in each other and across our company.

At Jacobs, we understand that “inclusion” is a verb, not a noun. It means being transparent and taking action on our statements, commitments and initiatives that drives meaningful, measurable change both in our company and in the communities that we serve.

It means creating a workplace where our differences are accepted, celebrated and harnessed to bring the innovative, extraordinary solutions clients demand from us. It means creating a culture of belonging where everyone can thrive — a culture that we call TogetherBeyond℠.

Our Vision: To be the employer of choice and recognized globally for attracting talent from diverse backgrounds, perspectives and lived experiences based on merit where inclusion and belonging is our differentiator in bringing innovative thought and solutions to our clients.

Our Mission: Jacobs will create an environment where employees from all different backgrounds and cultures want to join, where they feel they belong and where they will thrive.

Employee Network Groups

Our Jacobs Employee Networks – each of which is open to all employees to join, contribute to and learn and grow from –play a critical role in fostering our Culture of Caring in the work they do. The groups are centered around offering all employees an opportunity to collaborate with others for personal connection and professional growth.

The shared mission of our employee networks is to make, celebrate and develop Jacobs’ employee population, provide career enriching development opportunities for all levels of talent, assist in the attraction and retention of top talent based on merit, facilitate innovation at Jacobs, and contribute to the communities in which we live and work.
