For the twelfth consecutive year, Team Hancock has been named a ‘Best Place to Work’! Congratulations to our entire team and a huge thank you to everyone for their individual and collective commitment, participation, and excitement for creating a world-class employee experience. We’re especially proud and appreciative because nearly 100% of our team members complete the survey, truly representing the voices of our entire team.
As Chairman and managing owner, Kevin Hancock, shared in an email upon receiving the news, “Being a best place to work never gets easy and it never gets old! Great job to everyone in our company—thank you!”
Team Hancock’s culture makes the difference, and culture exists whether an organization is working on it or not. We choose to prioritize not only what we work on, but the way in which we work. Our goal is to create a team environment where every employee leads, feels empowered, respected, trusted, listened to, and valued as a human being. That is what being a Best Place to Work means to us—safe spaces for people to show up as their authentic and unique selves and contribute to a greater purpose.
Hancock Lumber’s mission endures—to create a work environment that first and foremost recognizes employees as human beings and ultimately improves the lives of anyone who is a part of the organization.

Best Places to Work in Maine is a research-driven program from the Best Companies Group that inspects companies, their programs and benefits and surveys employees for their perspective. Companies that meet certain criteria are considered the Best Places to Work in Maine. Hancock Lumber strives to make every voice heard and relies on the survey not just to be potentially named a ‘Best Place to Work’ but to continuously evolve and make necessary change to enhance the employee experience. Team Hancock will be present at an awards reception in October, upon which the ranks from the survey will be revealed. Congratulations again to every single employee that makes Hancock Lumber a Best Place to Work!
