Career Development

“I love the level of responsibility and exposure to diverse construction processes that I receive at Walsh. I have handled tasks and responsibilities that most new hires would have to wait months, even years, to complete.”

-Nick Larson
Project Engineer

We are dedicated to the growth and prosperity of our employees, and we have built a culture that promotes teamwork, responsibility, and continuous learning. Throughout their careers, Walsh employees are given many opportunities to grow through mentoring with company leaders, classroom learning with industry experts, and on-the-job training with seasoned professionals. Whether you are new to the construction industry or you have been in this business for a long time, The Walsh Group has programs to help you achieve your career and personal goals.

Our Career Development program provides our employees with the tools, knowledge, experience, and guidance they need to excel. Our Career Development program promotes:

Learning – Training and development experiences enable knowledge transfer and allow you to learn our business from experienced leaders dedicated to your success.
Connection – We keep class sizes small and encourage interaction to create connection and collegiality between employees. This makes the company feel smaller and promotes the family atmosphere at the heart of The Walsh Group’s culture.
