Big-D Construction of Salt Lake City has named Rob Moore as CEO, replacing Jack Livingood, who moved to become chairman of the board. The company said that the changes come in an effort to better facilitate the continued growth and service capabilities of the firm.
With 46 years in the construction industry, including 41 years with Big-D, Moore will move from his former position as president and chief operating officer and will have responsibility for enterprise-wide leadership.
As part of the restructuring, Forrest McNabb has been promoted to president of the Mountain West Group from his former role as executive vice president. He will also continue his leadership role in Big-D’s National Food and Beverage Group. McNabb has 35 years of experience, including 28 with Big-D.
“These three key leaders possess more than 100 years of combined experience,” the company statement said. “Not only will their leadership enable Big-D to grow and expand, but their guidance will help Big-D remain rooted in the strong values that have been part of the company for 50 years.”
Founded in 1967 in Ogden, Big-D now has eight regional offices, generating more than $1 billion in annual revenue. The company was recently named one of Engineering News-Record’s Top 100 Contractors in the nation and has been one of the publication’s Top 400 Contractors for 27 consecutive years.
“We are excited for the growth and opportunities these strategic moves will provide as we expand our footprint throughout the nation and increase our brand awareness,“ said Moore.
In addition to its Salt Lake City headquarters, Big-D has operations in Ogden; Lindon; Park City; Pleasanton, California; Tempe, Arizona; Minneapolis, Minnesota; and Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
