Still Have Questions?
Yes. Many of our best hires weren’t actively looking when we first connected. Reaching out now puts you on our radar, so we can connect when the right opportunity comes up.
No. Conversations with McGough are confidential. Your information stays within our recruiting team and is never shared outside of it without your permission.
Reach out anyway. Experienced professionals often bring careers that don’t map cleanly to a single title, and some of our best hires came in through that kind of conversation.
A member of our recruiting team will review your information and reach out to you to gather more information. If there isn’t a match right now, we’ll stay in touch with relevant updates as they come.
We’re hiring across our regional offices and active project sites throughout the country. If you have a specific market in mind, or if you’re open to wherever the right opportunity is, let us know when you contact us, and we’ll talk through the fit.
It depends on the role. Office-based positions often have hybrid options, field roles are based at the project site, and traveling roles follow the work. We’ll be straightforward about what a given role looks like day-to-day.
Yes. For roles that require a move, we offer relocation support to make the transition smoother for you and your family. We’ll walk through the specifics as part of the conversation.
Coming in senior doesn’t mean you’ve topped out. Many of our longest-tenured leaders joined at the senior level and kept growing into broader roles from there. We’ll talk through where you want to go and whether McGough is the right place to get there.
