What sets Van Meter Industrial apart?
Simply put, it's our people! In January of 2005, VMI became 100% employee-owned. This means everyone working for our company is an owner with a stake in our future. As owners, our people are empowered to make decisions, take risks, and do what they feel is right to best serve our customers.

Our rich history, service mindset, and culture of ownership all combine to make Van Meter Industrial "uncompromisingly different". If you are looking for a unique experience, we welcome you to explore our opportunities!

Proud Employee Owners!

"I feel that Van Meter is a very special place to work for many reasons. Two of the most important to me are the atmosphere created by being an employee-owned company and the overall feeling that is present throughout Van Meter to simply do the right thing for our customers. I think being employee-owned drives both the atmosphere as well as the attitude. No one is perfect, but when you act like the owner because you are the owner, it tends to show through your actions."

"There's SOMETHING about Van Meter, given I have worked here over 30 years! I've always been given the opportunity to explore and work in other areas within the company when I needed a change, I feel fortunate that instead of having to leave the company to find my 'niche', I was able to find it after 4 jobs, just within the same company!"

"I enjoy working for Van Meter because the opportunities are endless with a lot of great people behind you. It is an open environment where everyone's ideas are important and everyone is encouraged to be creative."

"Van Meter provides its employee owners the opportunity to grow and be successful. I believe my experience is typical of people who have worked here for a number of years. I started here 12 years ago with no experience in the electrical industry. I've had the opportunity to do 4 different jobs and I know that the company will continue to offer new opportunities to me in the future. The company really cares about each individual who works here. Every day I work with professionals who care about the success of the company and their fellow employees. It is awesome to see the professional and personal success of my fellow employee owners."
