A great place to start a career or advance in your profession

The Thrasher Group is one of the fastest growing firms in the United States’ Mid-Atlantic Region. While continuing to expand in order to offer our clients a full-suite of development and infrastructure services, we are consistently looking for for smart, motivated people – at any stage in their careers – who are eager to collaborate with others and advance in their professions.

We are a multidisciplinary team of architecture, engineering, and survey professionals with the experience, integrity, and versatility to get the job done – and do it the right way.

Our mission is to improve the communities where we live and work. Our services go beyond engineering and architecture to make sure our clients and communities prosper. Our people are passionate about supporting the Appalachian region through their daily work as well as through contributions and volunteering with local nonprofits, programs, and initiatives.

Thrasher provides opportunities for careers within administration, engineering or architectural design, finance, human resources, IT, marketing communications, project management, and field services such as surveying, construction monitoring, and materials testing.

With excellent benefits and a work-hard, play-hard culture – Thrasher is a great place to start a career or advance in your profession.

The Thrasher Group has been improving the communities where we live and work since 1983 – not as outside consultants, but as residents and neighbors.

Our roots throughout central Appalachia and the Mid-Atlantic region have allowed us to build a reputation for doing meaningful work for communities of all sizes.

Our multi-disciplinary teams work across the full life cycle of a project and with an array of industry professionals – giving you the knowledge and experience to do more. In short, we're not a steppingstone. Thrasher is a firm where people build better careers and better communities, all in the places they call home.
