About the Company

Shaw is a large company with more than 20,000 employees worldwide and part of an even bigger group of companies owned by Berkshire Hathaway (you may have heard of its CEO, Warren Buffett). We supply carpet, resilient, hardwood, laminate, tile and stone, synthetic turf and other products to homes and businesses around the world. These products are important because what we put on the floor makes a big difference in the places where we live, learn, work and gather. The impact we have on people’s lives is a privilege we take very seriously – and the reason we hire the very best people.

Every job at Shaw is important in creating a positive customer experience – and great customer experience starts with a great employee experience. That’s why no matter where you work – from manufacturing, distribution or technical development, to sales, marketing or information technology, you play a very important role and are provided a safe, engaging workplace with opportunities for growth and development.
