ARLINGTON, TEXAS – January 22, 2014 – Bob Moore Construction is pleased to announce that Phillip Bell has been named the company’s new Chief Executive Officer (CEO).

A fixture in the north Texas construction community, Mr. Bell assumes his new position as the latest accomplishment in a successful career that goes back to 1964. After serving in various roles of increasing responsibility for other companies in the 1960s and 70s, he left his position as western region sales manager for Atlantic Building Systems in Atlanta Georgia to join Bob Moore Construction as a project manager in 1979. He rose quickly within the company, promoting to Vice President and becoming a partner in 1986. Mr. Bell assumed the role of President in 1997.

Mr. Bell was a key player in Bob Moore Construction’s transition from a pre-engineered steel builder to conventional concrete and tilt-up concrete construction in the 1980s. Since then, the company expanded the size and diversity of its portfolio to include more than a half-billion dollars of new office buildings, call centers, manufacturing facilities and distribution centers in Texas and all around the United States.

With Mr. Bell serving in the role of President, Bob Moore Construction has received a wide range of prestigious honors, including AGC General Contractor of the Year award, numerous AGC Summit and Merit Awards, TCA’s Excellence Award and various achievement awards for the company’s safety program. Bob Moore Construction also became the first general contractor in the United States to become a Certified Company by the Tilt-Up Concrete Association (TCA).

“Phillip Bell has been a big part of our success for more than 30 years,” said Mike Moore, Partner and Shareholder for Bob Moore Construction. “Phillip was instrumental in our decision to move into conventional construction in the 1980s which put us on a course to remarkable levels of success we never would have achieved otherwise. Since then he has been a tremendous leader and representative for Bob Moore Construction. I’m proud to know him as a friend and business partner and I’m confident he will lead the company to even greater success in his new role as CEO.”

“I’m honored to step into this role,” said Mr. Bell. “Since 1979 I’ve had the opportunity to learn from two CEOs, Bob Moore and Mike Moore, two truly great leaders and friends. I look forward to carrying on the business philosophy Bob and Mike created and developed, a legacy of integrity and quality that has served as the blueprint for our success for 67 years.

“I’m supported by fellow partner Ed McGuire, who is one of the top construction leaders in the United States, and a team of amazing construction professionals at Bob Moore Construction,” Mr. Bell added. “I believe the coming years offer the potential for remarkable growth, and I’m excited about taking on that challenge.”
