Amentum CEO John Heller Presented With 2024 Wash100 Award

Amentum CEO John Heller accepted his 2024 Wash100 Award during a recent meeting with Jim Garrettson, CEO of Executive Mosaic and founder of the recognition.

Each year, Wash100 highlights the most esteemed leaders in the government contracting industry. To choose its winners, Wash100 meticulously evaluates each nominee’s past success as well as their potential to carry this momentum into the future.

Heller received his eighth Wash100 Award this year for driving company growth. One way he did so was through new contracts, and in 2023, Amentum won several awards valued at over $1 billion as well as many in the hundreds of millions.

He also set up a merger with Jacobs’ critical mission solutions and cyber and intelligence business units through an agreement that was finalized in November. The merger will form a new publicly traded government contracting company.

Since taking the helm of Amentum in March 2022, Heller “has optimally strengthened the enterprise as a leader in the GovCon market and a powerful competitor and provider of energy, space exploration, intelligence-analytics and digital modernization offerings to the U.S. government,” said Garrettson.
