CAREERS
Our offices are in two vibrant, historic New England cities – Newburyport, MA and Burlington, VT.
We thrive on teamwork, innovation, and exploration, and we have a good time doing it! We are always interested in talking with talented, collaborative, hardworking people who want to join our team.
A Spirit of Community Giving
At Dore + Whittier, community involvement is important to our culture. We support and encourage our team members in Newburyport, MA, and Burlington, VT to give back to those in need as we regularly partner with organizations that provide support and resources to the homeless community, and those experiencing food insecurity.
We Are One Team
Spending time together outside of the workplace is central to our culture. Whether through firm-sponsored events such as our annual all company weekend in Stowe, VT, cruises on Lake Champlain, beach gatherings, trivia contests with other firms or the more day to day informal opportunities of connecting with each other like our Mid-day Motion activities that encourage folks to take a break from work to exercise and catch up with colleagues, these opportunities allow us to unite with each other which is essential for team development, mutual trust and our overall success!
