Job Description

Annual hourly pay range noted above based on experience and qualifications.

Hey! We’re Skender, nice to meet you.

Simply put, we’re builders. We build communities, relationships, dreams, and careers. If asked, “how would Skender describe itself?” We’d say we are an ambitious, humble, and compassionate company, looking for the right people to build a true partnership with for the long-term. The reason for our success is our people. We look for dynamic, high-energy, and fun teammates that are hungry for knowledge, ready to take charge of their career, and willing to have a blast while doing it.

Oh, we didn’t introduce ourselves…

About 70 years ago, Skender got its start in the basement of our founder’s family home. Now, Skender has two locations, our Chicago headquarters and our Indianapolis office, with over 300 employees. From humble basement beginnings to now, Skender has become one of the nation’s top 100 construction firms building dream spaces for many of the world’s leading brands. In more recent history (the past 15 years), we’ve won 28 best-place-to-work awards from three different organizations, each based on comprehensive workplace evaluations and employee input.

Wait, who are you?

We’re looking for an Engineering Intern who is ready to learn the ins and outs of a project management career path in construction. Do you enjoy creating, maintaining, and distributing project-related documentation? Great. Are you someone with a team-first attitude who will identify project gaps or inefficiencies and seek to improve them? Even better.

Our team is driven by three core values :

  • Proactive : You’ve got the eye of a tiger and the drive of a Ferrari. You are self-motivated, a hard-worker, and are ready to learn.
  • Refreshing : Teamwork makes the dream work, right? Your success is your team’s success. You don’t shy away from giving credit where it’s due.
  • True Partner : You jump at opportunities to collaborate / knowledge -share, you like to ask questions and actively listen, and you stay actively engaged with your team.

If our values align with yours, this could be a great match. We love meeting new people, so we can’t wait to hear about you!
