Life at United Civil

Meaningful Careers

If you’re looking for a people-first culture where your voice matters, your growth is invested in, and opportunities exist at every level of the organization, you’re in the right place.

Founded in 2014 by industry veterans committed to building a company grounded in strong values and high standards, UC has grown to a team of 300+ united by quality, safety, and service.

Responsible Growth

Our growth has been rapid, but never reckless. We hire the best people, pursue the right projects, and build on relationships that have been earned over years.

Agility Built on Experience

We don’t do things the way they’ve always been done, we communicate openly and pivot when needed.

A Culture of Collaboration

We welcome candid conversations, unique perspectives and co-created solutions. How can we improve our processes? How can we make your life better? What’s getting in your way? These aren’t questions we save for performance reviews, they’re part of our day-to-day dialogue.

The UC Family Works Hard and Celebrates Big

We take pride in doing challenging work, but we also make sure to celebrate the wins together. At United Civil, caring for our team and fostering strong connections is just as important as getting the job done. As our team grows in size, we remain a tight-knit group with an emphasis on the well-being of our employees.

A few things we’ve built together at UC:

  • Company sports leagues
  • Team building events and outings
  • Annual holiday party
  • A mentorship program connecting emerging talent with experienced leaders
  • A culture of connection and recognition, from birthdays to project milestones and safety spotlights

Building a Better Future, Together

We don’t just build infrastructure in communities, we show up for them.

Community Involvement

We recognize that the infrastructure we build often runs through busy areas where people live, work, and go about their daily routines. We take thoughtful steps to minimize disruption, prioritize public safety, and ensure our presence is considerate. From assisting neighbors across active work zones to helping carry groceries over open trenches, our crews approach every street with care, treating the community as if it were our own.

Philanthropy

Through UC Cares we invest time, resources, and energy into organizations that make a lasting impact on the people they serve, including Special Olympics, Make-A-Wish, local food pantries, medical research foundations, and youth organizations.

Environmental Stewardship

Our teams are trained and experienced in Dig Safe requirements, GPR protocols, and project-specific environmental compliance from erosion and sediment controls to endangered species protections, archaeological site awareness, and invasive species prevention.

Sustainability in Action

Beyond our greenhouse gas emission reduction initiatives, sustainable waste management, recycling and reuse prioritization, water conservation measures, and pollution mitigation practices, we’re also invested in social responsibility programs that advance and support local communities, and prioritize the safety and professional development of our workforce.
