At EllisDon, we’re constantly pushing the limits of what we've done in the past - propelling ourselves toward bigger and better opportunities, while exploring new market sectors and services. So it only seems natural that we'd hire people who have their own voice and aren't afraid to use it. These are people who are simultaneously critical, creative and captivated by construction. They make our business their business, and follow a path that with continuous learning and an innovative spirit leads them to be recognized as leaders in the industry. We hire these types of people knowing they are as diverse as we are, and they come on board because they share our core values. Then we simply give them the freedom to take their career (and EllisDon) further.

You come into work every day knowing that you are a key part of building new and exciting projects.  It’s a lot of pressure sometimes, but you enjoy being on site and thrive in a fast-paced environment.  Your co-workers look to you for answers, and your manager gives you the freedom to excel.
