Who’s hiring in Waterford?
Waterford lost two of its largest commercial tax generators when Summit Place Mall and a General Motors plant closed. Business today is spread along Dixie Highway and Highland Road (M-59). Light industrial and flex buildings are located along M-59 near Oakland County International Airport, which is a 750-acre airfield that ranks as the sixth busiest in the nation without scheduled passenger service.
The township also licenses medical marihuana facilities (via an ordinance first adopted in 2020), and opened a new period to apply for facility licenses in February 2026. Oakland County Michigan Works! operates a job center for Waterford, White Lake and Pontiac job seekers on Highland Road.
