Find the Construction Role You’ve Been Waiting For

Jackson first placed me in my current position over 14 years ago. Recently, my son, who is also an Executive in construction, expressed his family’s desire to move back home. I immediately called Matt and connected him with my son. Jackson was able to relocate my son back home, and most importantly, I now get to see my grandkids regularly. All kidding aside, my son received the same great attention to detail that I experienced with Jackson years ago. Their expertise and dedication are second to none, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for executive search services.

During the early stages of the COVID outbreak, my family and I made the decision to relocate back to our home state. However, I quickly realized that my existing network would not be of much help in finding reputable companies in the area. A friend recommended Jackson to me, and within 48 hours, they provided me with a breakdown of companies that would best utilize my skillset. I was extremely impressed with their efficiency and knowledge. When I went through the complete process, which resulted in my new position, I was even more impressed. They made one of the biggest decisions of my life as easy as possible, and I cannot recommend them enough.

I highly recommend Jackson based on my experiences with them as a client over the last nine years.  I have two other search firm partners that are less expensive and do a great job for me on routine hires.  For executive hires or highly complex search projects, I call Jackson.  Matt and his team will not hesitate to give me the facts when it comes to what our Executive teams expectations are compared to the market realities.  For me, this is invaluable.

I’ve been with two companies throughout my 22 year career.  Jackson  placed me in a Vice President of Construction role in 2017 in large part  because I had already built a level of trust with them beginning in  2011.  They were the only search firm I would call back and it was due  to their construction industry knowledge and their values, they are  simply good people that do the right thing.

I’ve worked with the Jackson team for several years and have always been impressed with their professionalism and ability to get the job done.  Matt’s team placed me in an executive role with one of the Midwest’s largest general contractors and since that time I’ve started my own firm.  I still rely on Matt’s advice and guidance as the owner of a development firm and truly value his experience and expertise.  When the time comes for me to expand my growing business, Jackson will be my first call because I know they understand my values and will bring the right candidates to the table that compliments our current team and customer base.

Jackson reached out to me about a CFO position they were working on for a growth-oriented electrical contractor. Initially, I was content with my current role, but the level of detail and attention Jackson provided in describing their client caught my attention. I was impressed with the non-pressure environment they created as my family and I navigated through this significant career decision. The experience with Jackson from that point throughout my placement was highly professional and thorough. I would not hesitate to use Jackson again for any future executives search or consulting projects at my new company.

I had the pleasure of engaging with Jackson’s team for over 11 years before finally deciding to move on from my Vice President role at a Texas-based General Contractor. When the time came to make the move, there was no question in my mind that Jackson was the right partner to help navigate the process. They had taken the time to build a strong relationship with me, gaining an understanding of my capabilities, desires, and even my family considerations. What truly impressed me was the access Jackson has to major executive leaders in the Construction Industry. Within three days of notifying them that I was ready for a change, I had four interviews lined up and received offers from all four companies. I ultimately chose the one that was the best fit for me, and it has completely transformed my career. Today, I am the COO of a construction company that will exceed $380 Million in revenues this year. I am incredibly grateful for Jackson’s expertise and guidance throughout this process, and I would highly recommend their services to anyone seeking a career change in the AEC industry.
