Founded in Seattle in 2021, Volant Partners was built on a new vision for engineering services. After decades of leadership in the consulting industry, founder Ron Hopkins set out to create an uncompromisingly employee-focused company. The founding principle was clear: a supported, world-class team is the only way to deliver an exceptional client experience.
Our philosophy is rooted in a simple truth: our people are our product. We are able to better attract the best talent when they have an equity stake in the company and a work environment where they can focus on what they do best. When our team is empowered and engaged, they deliver superior results. This success deepens client trust, creating a virtuous cycle that allows us to continuously reinvest in our people, our business, and our community.
This core belief—that our company's success is a direct result of our team's dedication—is why Volant Partners is an employee-owned company. We believe the people responsible for our success should directly share in it. This ownership model also enables us to invest our collective success back into the communities where we live and work. It’s that simple.
