Vermeulens embodies culture and we work together to create and uphold a collaborative and inclusive culture where our employees come from diverse backgrounds and are valued and inspired to share ideas, be creative, work hard, and have a little fun along the way. We are extremely proud that over our 50 years of growth, our culture has not wavered.

Collaboration Weeks

Vermeulens recognizes the importance of in person interaction for their staff.  To that end, we started Collaboration Week – 2 weeks per year that all staff gather in the Toronto office for a week of team building, fun, and lots of eating!  It began in 2012 and continues on, even the pandemic couldn’t stop this tradition.

50 Year Anniversary
2022 was a time of celebration for Vermeulens . . . 50 Years in business. The staff celebrated with a fun filled weekend in Boston starting with a client reception on Thursday then a staff party on Friday and ending with a traditional New England BBQ on Saturday. In between all the fun, we went on a trolley tour of a few buildings that we have worked on. It is very rare that we get to see any of the buildings once construction is completed. Thank you to the past, present, and future staff for making Vermeulens what it is today and what it will become in the future. . . a continued leader in pre-construction cost control!
