We are Verdantas!
We are people. We are united. We are building a better tomorrow.
Our Story
In 2020, we started with a vision to build a consulting company focused on our environment – making the world a better place. We then began to bring together consulting companies that all shared this common focus for a better world with a people-focused approach. Each entity that joins contributes its engineering, planning, science and technical expertise to create One Great Company to solve complex problems. They bring a legacy of excellence, a reputation of honesty and integrity, with like-minded cultures dedicated to inclusion, diversity, and collaboration. Collectively, we are experts in the environment and its supporting infrastructure who are committed to a people-focused future. Our efforts positively impact the communities we are welcomed into, our employees are allowed to balance their everyday lives, they are encouraged to grow into who they wish to become - all while putting our clients and the community we live in at the center of our actions.

Verdantas—a company whose singular mission is to create a better world for ourselves and future generations—was created by merging 9 companies into One Great Company, led by groups of engineers, planners, scientists, and technology experts with shared values, cultures and vision for the future.
Whether it is restoration, new construction, redevelopment of existing assets, or finding resiliencies in our resources—discovering and creating a sustainable approach to everything we do is part of our Verdantas DNA.
We strive to make things better and find the best solutions. That’s what engineers, planners, scientists, and technical experts do—it's how we are wired. We also recognize that we are just one piece of the solution towards creating a better, more sustainable future, and we do this by fostering collaboration with our clients and the communities where we work.
To achieve our best, we first look inward towards a people-focused culture. At Verdantas, we are committed to building a culture that:
- Attracts, finds, and hires the best people into the Verdantas organization,
- Fosters an environment where people work in a highly productive and collaborative manner,
- Encourages everyone to strive to do their personal best at work and at home,
- Provides exciting projects for our employees to work on that have meaningful and positive outcomes for our communities,
- Provides a great career path for personal growth, and
- Integrates having fun into our business and respects the need for a healthy life-work balance.
In essence, it is our belief that when we are successful, building a more sustainable and climate change-resilient world will foster economic growth for all and pave a healthier way for generations to come. We are committed to performing at our highest levels, doing great things together, and helping make our communities a better place to live.
Let’s work together to make a better tomorrow.
Sincerely,
Gerry Salontai
