FOUNDER & MANAGING DIRECTOR, BŪTEROS

Meet the Founder

Rachel Bermoy is the founder and Managing Director of Buteros, a company that was established to bridge the generational gap in the engineering industry. With a background in civil engineering, design, construction, and operations, Rachel witnessed firsthand the challenges professionals face when transitioning from qualification to industry demands. She founded Buteros in 2019 to address the need for effective mentorship and knowledge transfer, offering a solution that pairs retiring professionals with emerging talent.

The Buteros model brings together a team of retired and semi-retired experts who provide on-call technical coaching, empowering organisations to have the expertise they need to improve performance, avoid project delays, and reduce stress from training bottlenecks. Buteros has evolved from traditional 1:1 mentoring to offering a flexible service that acts as a technical Employee Assistance Program, providing continuous support to organisations.

Rachel is passionate about innovation, learning, and challenging the industry’s approach to professional development. She is committed to collaborating with diverse teams to elevate the standard of talent development across sectors.

Our Purpose & Vision

Buteros derives its name from the Greek word ‘presbuteros’, meaning elder. Our mission is rooted in intergenerational knowledge exchange, which benefits both the organisations and individuals we serve. We aim to facilitate the seamless transfer of knowledge, expertise, and leadership across generations, enabling future success in the industry.

There is an urgent need to improve the transition phases into and out of the industry. Entering an unsupportive work environment can significantly hinder early careers, while retiring professionals often wonder how to repurpose their wealth of experience. At Buteros, we strive to provide a solution to this issue by enabling experienced industry leaders to pass on their knowledge to the rising talent.  Preparing our future leaders.

Our vision is not only about retaining technical excellence but also enhancing industry collaboration and facilitating a smoother transition for both incoming and outgoing professionals.

Statistical Insight:

The scale of the deficit in our own capability to educate future engineers is confronting and poses a genuine threat to our prosperity, especially when you consider that over 40% of our current workforce is likely to retire in the next 15 years.
