Meet Our Veterans

Below, you can learn more about some of our incredible employees and their careers in the military before joining Skanska. 

Meet Mike

There are tons of parallels between my time in service and my experience in construction. Two that standout most are working toward a singular, common goal shared among the team and the comradery developed by working through new challenges with a team.
Meet Mike

Meet Albert

Never underestimate the value of teamwork that the military instilled in you. Problems encountered in the construction industry may be different than those you faced when serving, but they can always be solved but with a positive attitude and determination.
Meet Albert

Veterans bring many values to the construction industry. Traits such as working hard, teamwork and responsibility are engrained into every aspect of our military journey.

Meet Jessica

The military is the foundation of who I am today; it taught me how much I’m capable of. It made me disciplined, adaptable and determined—these are traits that I’m not sure I could have acquired anywhere else.
Meet Jessica

Meet Joaquin

Veterans bring strength, perseverance, commitment, leadership, tact, bearing and endurance to the construction industry.

The construction industry provides so many opportunities across various areas. Many skills learned in the military are transferable, particularly the ability to move with demand and change.

Meet Russ

The military entrusted me at a young age to lead teams in challenging environments and situations. I learned to be courageous and decisive, but careful when managing risk—all while putting the welfare of this nation and its people above my own.

Meet Justin

Skanska offers many opportunities for Veterans to advance and be rewarded for the work that is put in. They also offer great benefits for Veterans and their family members.

Meet Jeff

Our Care for Life value is the most relatable value that aligns with the military. As an officer, my most important mission was to make sure each one of my Marines went home safe every day. Whether it’s on deployment or just in training, a safety-first culture while staying mission-focused is critical.
Meet Jeff

Meet Carlos

I have so much pride in this country; I’m so proud to be an American, and I feel the same way about working for Skanska.

Meet Jarrett

In the military, you have to be courageous, and working safely in construction is pretty courageous.
