Mission Be the firm that builds a better world.

Description Henderson Engineers is a national building systems design firm with a wide array of engineering services and a portfolio representing a full range of markets including business, community, retail, healthcare, and venue. Founded in 1970, we have 1,000 employees and licenses in all 50 states (plus the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and British Columbia). Through our offices in Bentonville, Dallas, Houston, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Nashville, New York, Philadelphia, Phoenix, and Tampa, we help bring buildings to life.

Henderson is known in the industry for our people-first culture, technical excellence, and innovative designs, and we’ve diligently cultivated an inclusive, best-in-class work environment where people have a voice and opportunities to reach their full potential – both as employees and individuals. Our core values drive us to deliver unrivaled service and solutions that make us the team you want to partner with.

Because good design on paper requires great building partners to bring it to life, we offer construction management and commissioning services from our subsidiary Henderson Building Solutions under one roof. Together, we combine engineering knowledge with in-the-field expertise to provide single-source design-build solutions for any project.

People can be themselves here. In fact, we’re known in the industry for our people-first focus. Our founder, Fran Henderson, set the tone 50 years ago, and our leadership continues to support a family like atmosphere that welcomes all. Our vision is to build a better world. We believe that starts with embracing diversity, which is why we’ve taken steps to ensure all Henderson employees have a voice and opportunities to grow. Our projects would be nothing without our people – and, not to brag, but our people are pretty great.

Meet Jacob Hothan, a lighting designer in the #venue sector. Each week of #PrideMonth we'll be spotlighting members of #TeamHenderson who are involved in our people resource group for the #LGTBQIA+ community and allies, Unite. When asked about why he joined Unite, Jacob said... "Before coming to Henderson, I had worked for a few engineering firms in Southern California. I had been in the industry for more than 9 years before moving back home to Kansas City, and in all those years (in California, no less), not one of them had a DE&I initiative, let alone a group dedicated to the LGBTQIA community. My personal experience with these firms was generally positive, but I was never truly my authentic self during those years. I found it easy to suppress who I was, even in an environment where I was accepted but just never quite felt like I fit in. When another (openly) gay man was hired in my final year, I suddenly realized that hiding who I was outside of work was probably never all that necessary. But, it took the act of hiring just ONE other queer person for me to realize it. ...Show more
