2025 Intern Program

ROBERT

Currently studying at St. Charles Community College, Robert first toured Wright Construction three years ago and has been interested in getting more involved ever since.

Now 19, Robert is gaining hands-on experience in the field. He enjoys watching a project develop from the ground up and the ability to apply what he learns at work in every day life.

So far, one of his most memorable moments has been learning to maneuver with a trailer hitch through test scenarios. And while he likes being on-site, he also has not minded spending some time in our air conditioned warehouse organizing materials on recent hotter days!

We’re glad Robert is a part of the team this summer. As for what’s next? “Definitely construction.”

Watch Robert talk about his experience interning here.

ELLIOT

Elliot appreciated learning all parts of the field this summer – from estimating to project management.

The biggest lesson she learned? “It really does all tie together”.

She also valued the chance to observe how Wright works with subcontractors and clients, and how important it is to have a full-picture understanding of the industry—especially as a woman in construction. Elliot is inspired by the many women at Wright who lead by example.

When we asked if she’d recommend the experience, she didn’t hesitate: “100% yes.”

Watch Elliott talk about her summer at Wright Construction here.

I am writing this letter to acknowledge the superior pre-construction services provided by Wright Construction to our firm since 2011. Our initial introduction to Wright Construction began well before 2011 when they were selected as the general contractor for several of our projects with the Kirkwood School District. As we worked with Wright’s project administrators, project managers, and field superintendents we found that their “can do” attitude permeated the entire company. After experiencing several successful projects with Wright we concluded their company could be an asset to our firm as we prepared preliminary cost information, project schedules, phasing schedules, and feasibility studies for our clients.

Wright Construction’s team exceeded our expectations by continually offering design, constructability solutions to overcome conflicts and omissions in the prepared construction documents. They directly addressed the City’s concerns, initiated and secured permits as well as presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission to achieve a variance, and coordinated all of the building’s utility accounts as designers neglected the project utility phase responsibilities. In addition, Wright worked diligently and engaged their trade team in delivering our facility within budget and ahead of schedule.
