Meet Connie
The McKnight family has been with me through over 40 years of life’s ups and downs. They value my input and have supported me in any way I’ve needed over the years. I’m grateful to have such a wonderful place to work.
Meet Anthony
McKnight Construction supports our team members as family, and they make it a joy to go to work. I feel a lot of pride in the work we’ve done together, and grateful they take my safety as seriously as family should.
Meet Brooks
I started working for McKnight straight out of Georgia Southern, and have worked at every level over the last 20 years. I’m proud of the company it has become, and excited for the bright future we’ll build.
Meet Carlos
My son and I have had some of our best days at the McKnight Fishing Day. It’s awesome to have a company that supports my career but also cares about my family.
Meet Amanda
McKnight Construction has given me the opportunity for growth in my career while simultaneously having a family. I am a single mother of three young girls, and McKnight has allowed me to find a way to balance my work and home life so that neither has to be sacrificed. I do not have to choose between my career and my family. McKnight has given me the resources, trust, and room to excel with both.
Meet Lynn
I’m a 2nd generation McKnight Construction employee, and just like my father, I love this company. They are a family, but they treat us like family too. They ask and truly care how I’m doing, and how my family is doing. It’s easy to do what I love with people I love.
Whether at Fishing Day, Seasonal Parties, or Lunch and Learns, McKnight Construction prioritizes the time we spend together. The fun we have builds the trust we need to support the jobs we love.
“Work hard, play hard, and leave a beautiful memory”
-Will McKnight, Chairman of the Board of McKnight Construction
