Want to make a difference with us? Join our team!

At Kleinfelder we work hard and are passionate about the work we do; however, we understand the importance of life/work balance. We help our employees prioritize a healthy life/work balance by offering flexible work schedules, options to work remotely, generous paid time off policies (which we encourage employees to use), office/family events and activities, transfer and relocation opportunities, and benefits related to child/adult care services.

We have found that when our employees can achieve a life/work balance, they are more productive, have better attitudes at work, are more engaged with their teammates, and are more inclined to work safer – an important aspect of our industry!

Our offices get creative with their team building activities, participating in a variety of activities ranging from kayaking, baseball games, and escape rooms to axe throwing (which of course started with a thorough safety plan and debrief!).

Some offices even participate in recreational sports leagues, giving staff a chance to team build while exercising.

If you’re looking for a company that will allow you to thrive both professionally and personally, then you’ve found it. Join our team today.
