I have been with Wakefield for over 20 years. The time has gone quickly and the organization is adaptive, progressive and constantly evolving to meet our customer needs as well as the marketplace. What makes Wakefield an attractive employer and an envy of some of our very top competitors is our ability to navigate in an entrepreneurial fashion while being one of the Best Managed Companies in Canada. We have a structure to support our business needs while balancing the comradery, the people and marketplace. In my opinion, Wakefield has the perfect recipe for success in Canada.

I have worked at Wakefield Canada for over eight years now and in that time I have truly come to realize that the strength of an organization comes from the passion and commitment of its people. This passion and commitment fuels creativity, results and ultimately an all-encompassing desire to succeed. This type of winning mindset along with a culture that encourages contribution and collaboration are what make Wakefield a truly special and inclusive workplace. If you want to work for a company that will value your opinion and make you feel like a member of the family, then consider a career at Wakefield.

I have had the pleasure of working for Wakefield Canada for over 16 years. I came to Wakefield because it not only had a great reputation, but it also had a very competitive salary along with lots of other benefits. This has been something that has made me feel very appreciated over the years working here but what has truly kept me at Wakefield is 100% the people and the culture. Wakefield has some of the best people working here that are not only talented but truly a pleasure to work with every day and many have become friends over the years. Wakefield cares and they show it!
