Build Landmark $20M+ Projects with an ENR-Ranked Industry Leader

My client is a well-established, ENR-ranked general contractor with more than 100 years of industry experience and a strong national presence. Generating approximately $300 million in annual revenue, the company has built a reputation for delivering complex, high-profile industrial builds. The Indianapolis office is experiencing significant growth, backed by an $80M+ near-term backlog and approximately $250M in planned work over the next two years, providing exceptional stability and long-term opportunity.

Despite its continued growth, the company has maintained a collaborative, team-oriented culture where employees are empowered with ownership, supported by experienced local leadership, and given clear opportunities for long-term career advancement.
