We had an exciting start to 2026 at The McFate Group! In Q1 we started a fresh chapter at a new location, and February was packed with events and conferences, including the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Jackson College Applied Technology Center. As our company grows, so does our team, and we’re still hiring. Keep reading to hear more about what we’ve been up to, and click here to see our open positions!
Rob McFate, President
Earlier this year, The McFate Group moved into a new space in Dexter, Michigan, down the road from our previous office. We’re so excited for this new chapter!
In February, the Jackson College Applied Technology Center held a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The event featured speeches from Jackson College President Dan Phelan, Jackson College Board member Donna Lake, Sheril Tarrant from Consumers Energy, Jackson College faculty members Jamie Vandenburgh and Andrew Hoxie, and current student Logan Demarest.
February was busy! Last month, we attended the Construction Association of Michigan annual tradeshow, the MAAE Michigan Airport Conference, and had a booth at the Western Michigan Univerity Spring Engineering Expo. In March, we went to the Butler Manufacturing Regional Meeting in Indianapolis, and then the Houston Industrial Summit in Texas.
We updated our team headshots! Take a look 🙂
