Weekley Adds Double the Jobs in 2012
David Weekley Homes has hired 188 new employees company- wide from January to June in 2012, compared to 90 new hires for the same period in 2011. Over 50% of the positions were newly
created and many were returning employees seeking rehire. The added positions span the company, including construc- tion, administrative, purchasing, professional and management functions.
“We are thrilled to be adding American jobs as we enjoy national growth, especially after the difficult times our industry has experi- enced during the recession,” John Johnson, CEO of David Weekley Homes, said. “Homebuilding is rebounding after weathering the current market for the past six years.”
Headquartered in Houston, David Weekley Homes added many jobs to the local economy in construction, sales, purchasing and in support roles. Houston has seen a 2.6 percent job growth in 2011 and is predicted by the Federal Reserve to top 2 percent for the third straight year. Nationally in 2012, non-farm job growth was better than expected in July, adding 163,000 total payroll employment verses a predicted 100,000 jobs. For more informa- tion visit
