The Garver Communications Team is a group of strategic thinkers and creative doers all steadfastly focused on telling the story we live out every workday — that Garver is the best firm to work for and with. We do this by bringing on the best talent in our respective disciplines and collaborating in a fun, fast-paced environment to execute award-winning creative campaigns.
We’re adding a full-time Videographer/Editor to our crew. If you have the industry experience and confidence to work with attention to detail and in new, creative ways – all with respect for the Garver brand – then we’d love to have you join our team.

You’ll collaborate with a robust creative team that has the support of a 1,300-person (and growing) firm, willing to go the extra mile to best tell our story.
