The son of a residential home builder, Ben Gifford spent his summers and after school hours with a hammer in his hand. When he graduated from high school in 1998, Ben decided to utilize his knowledge of the industry by joining BD Construction, where he began as a basic laborer – a position he did not hold long before he advanced to leadman. He was responsible for organizing and coordinating subs in the crew, as well as leading them in the actual construction in the field. Learning more about the commercial side of the industry, Ben continued to grow in his leadership capacity. Due to his diligence and motivation in the workplace, Ben was promoted in 2004 to superintendent.
As a superintendent, Ben is the on-site project manager where he oversees quality control and safety. Ben also manages subcontractors and suppliers and oversees the project schedule. He continues to embrace opportunities to learn more about the industry through seminars, classes, special training and online events.
Outside of work, Ben is an avid golfer and enjoys hunting and shooting. However, what is most important to him is spending time with his family.
