Last week’s Women in Construction Week gave us an opportunity to celebrate, learn, and recognize the women helping shape our industry. At Ahern, that commitment goes far beyond one week on the calendar. Throughout the year, our Women in Construction efforts focus on creating opportunities for connection, growth, and belonging across our company through networking, professional development, hands-on experiences, and mentorship. We’re proud that women make up 14% of Ahern’s workforce, ahead of the 11% national average. At the same time, women remain underrepresented in shop and field roles across the industry, reinforcing why this work matters. We are committed to helping close that gap by expanding awareness of careers in construction, investing in recruitment, and building pathways for women to grow and lead. From our youth apprenticeship program to participation in events like Women in the Trades open houses, we’re working year-round to introduce more women to meaningful careers in the trades. The future of construction depends on attracting and supporting strong talent from every background, and we’re proud to be part of that progress.
Happy New Year! 🎉 We hope 2026 is off to a strong start for you and your family, filled with good health, big goals, and plenty of moments worth celebrating. As we begin the year, we’re taking a minute to recognize what makes Ahern special: the people behind the work and the families who support them every day. To kick off 2026, we invited the children of Ahern employees to help celebrate Ahern by contributing artwork for our annual calendar design, and they delivered in a big way! Take a look at these fantastic submissions that show what Ahern means to them.
After years of planning and collaboration, our Madison team is now thriving in a custom-built, 60,000 sq. ft. facility designed to support growth, innovation, and an exceptional work experience. From layout to finishes, every detail was thoughtfully chosen to showcase the pride we take in our craft, the excellence of our people, and the safe, modern environment they work in every day. Check out the video to see how this space was built with purpose, supporting training, collaboration, and cutting-edge work, and how it reflects the future we’re building together.

This year, Ahern marked an incredible milestone: 145 years of excellence. We celebrated in true Ahern style! Our anniversary event reflected the people who make this company great: our employees and their families. From inflatable obstacle courses and a mechanical shark to casino tables and live music, we pulled out all the stops to honor our legacy and look ahead to the future. Here’s to 145 years of building something great, and many more to come.
At Ahern, we believe great careers start with strong foundations, and earlier this month, 44 interns from across our offices got a firsthand look at what that means. Throughout one week, our interns participated in immersive sessions on leadership, communication, and professional growth. They also had the opportunity to engage directly with our executive leadership team, gaining real-world insights into what drives success at Ahern. The week wrapped up with a networking event at Road America, giving these future professionals a well-earned chance to relax, connect, and build relationships that will last beyond the summer. We’re proud to mentor the next generation of talent and look forward to the fresh perspective and energy they bring to the industry. #AhernInterns #NextGenTalent #BuiltForSuccess #AhernCareers
