Meet our thought leaders.
Giving our team members a platform to influence company decisions is at the core of how we operate. We have established a diverse set of thought-influencing teams that directly contribute to decisions made by our executive leadership. Our thought influencers carefully inspect every piece of the puzzle before placing it to make sure it’s the right fit. Staff input on company decision-making expands individual employee opportunity and impacts the real solutions we provide to help our clients succeed.

Culture Collaboration Team
“As an engineer, I get to use the technical side of my brain every day. The culture committee allows me to use the creative side of my brain, which I missed! Planning both large company-wide events as well as smaller office-centered activities to give everyone’s brain a break for 5-10 minutes is extremely rewarding!”
Marcell Walker
Infrastructure Equity Team
“Equity is defined differently within each community. Bolton & Menk appreciates the need for it, regardless of the community we serve. Our tagline Real People Real Solutions ties right into
that. It encompasses real people in
the community and the real solutions we provide.”
Brian Simmons, P.E.
Product Innovation Team
“Product innovation is an opportunity for us to anticipate things that our clients are not yet even aware that they need. We spend time thinking about where markets are going or where the industry is headed. Allowing smaller communities to have access to technologies they might not otherwise have is the ultimate goal.”
“I enjoy the clients and communities that allow us the privilege to work for them and working on a team that delivers real solutions.”
“After meeting with the leadership here at Bolton & Menk, it was clear that this company was about more than the bottom line, it was about people – both staff and clients.”
“This experience has kept me continually learning, continues to provide a challenging yet rewarding environment, and allows me to work with a fun, diverse mix of real people. Without a doubt, our people have been and will always be the foundation of Bolton & Menk’s success.”
“Bolton & Menk focuses on strong client satisfaction, while still providing the work/life balance that allows their employees to grow careers and have a family life.”
“I enjoy talking to community and council members to help them better understand various project elements and why they’re necessary.”
“Communities come to us with complex problems. I love that we can give them options and clarity, and experience that ‘A-Ha! moment’ with them.”
