Leadership Development Program

78 years and countless innovations later, JCB is the world’s largest privately-owned manufacturer of construction and agricultural equipment. At 22 plants spanning four continents—and countries including the United States, the United Kingdom, India and Brazil—JCB manufactures a range of more than 300 products including Loadall telescopic handlers, backhoeloaders, excavators, wheel loaders, compact excavators, skid steer loaders, compact track loaders, Accessaerial work platforms, rough terrain forklifts, and Fastrac tractors.

JCB people are at the heart of our business and as a family owned business we answer to our customers, not a group of shareholders. That freedom allows us to concentrate on developing the latest technologies and incorporating them into our equipment. We focus on what our customer needs on the jobsite – a machine that holds up in the toughest environment and increases their productivity.

At JCB, we stand behind our products – and our name.
