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.
