"Hello, my name is Matthew Jaeger. I have been with Gould Construction for 14 years. I came to work with Gould in 2010 after the housing and market crash of 2007-2008. I had been working and living in Florida for a while and the crash hit there hard. With no work to be found down there and being from the valley I contacted Gould, at which point I interviewed for the job and flew back the following week to start. I was grateful for the job at the time, and it has been a good fit ever since. I started with Gould as an equipment operator as I had been supervising for a company previously and was ready for a little less stress. This did not last long as I was pushed into supervision in less than a few months after starting due to the necessity of increasing projects. Gould’s reputation has always seemed to keep them a top pick for the projects needed throughout Glenwood Springs and the surrounding valleys. Over the years I have had the opportunity to work on and complete a variety of very interesting projects from pedestrian and bicycle trails, river work, hospital/cancer center add on, road/ utility work, hotels, water systems, complete infrastructure for private ranches, work on both hot spring pools, work for RFTA bus service, and even a little helicopter commuting into remote site for water intake for Glenwood Springs. As a mostly commercial civil contractor, Gould Construction seems to provide a good service to the valley to not only help build new projects but also to keep existing infrastructure up and working. I am proud to be a small part of this greater company that helps build and service its surrounding communities."

As a family-owned business, Gould goes beyond just offering jobs; it cultivates a workplace where employees are valued and supported in a way that’s often missing in larger corporations. One of the most impactful aspects of working here is the genuine sense of community. Gould Construction isn’t just another business; it’s woven into the fabric of our small community. This commitment to community is evident in every project and in the way the company prioritizes local connections. Our neighbors, friends and family are ultimately our customers. Employees have the unique opportunity to contribute directly to projects that positively impact their own neighborhoods, building a sense of pride and responsibility.

Gould understands that their people are their greatest asset, and consistently invests in our workforce. Gould Construction focuses on helping employees grow and feel supported in their careers. The leadership team goes out of their way to ensure employees’ voices are heard, creating an environment where feedback is valued and people genuinely feel they belong.

"My name is Josh Backus and for the past two years I’ve had the privilege of working at Gould Construction. After exploring several different industries, I truly believe I’ve found my calling in civil construction. The work is challenging but the sense of accomplishment I get from seeing a project come to life is unmatched.

"I have been working at Gould Construction since 2008 and it has been fulfilling for me to be able to watch the community grow with new construction and new developments which Gould has provided for all towns and facilities. I enjoy being a part of the city upgrades, the landmarks that we have built, and the relationships that we retain. The greatest joy is to show a quality finished product. The teams which I have worked with all have their own obstacles but what I like about the teams are that there is always a common goal of a finished product in sight. With construction, you will always have your ups and downs but with strong crews, the ability to change things to a positive outlook or a positive restructure is where I think the Gould teams excel. Working under the Gould name gives me pride in what I do and motivates me to become the best I can to properly support this company. The incentives and training that I have received also gives me new tools to become a better listener, leader, and provides me with the ability to handle our client's needs successfully."

It gives me satisfaction that working at Gould Construction has not only advanced my career but also that during my time here I have been able to help others advance their careers as well. Overall it has been a great experience to be a part of the Gould Construction team."
