Why people stay at McGrath:

  • Employee-owned – your work directly impacts your future
  • Repeat client base – less chaos, more relationships
  • Complex projects – pharma, industrial, healthcare, energy, & commercial
  • Stability + growth – decades of steady expansion
  • A team that values integrity, accountability, and doing things right

What we’re looking for:

  • Experience estimating construction projects 
  • Ability to read plans and understand full project scope
  • Strong communication with clients and subcontractors
  • Someone who takes pride in accuracy and ownership

What you get:

  • 100% paid family medical, dental, and vision
  • 401(k) with match + Roth option
  • PTO + holidays
  • Long-term career growth in an employee-owned company
  • Competitive salary
