“I have had the pleasure of working for Hensel Phelps for 35 years. My career began in 1985 as a Bridge Builder in San Antonio, Texas. In this time, my family and I relocated nine times and lived in six states. It was an adventure that our family is very grateful to have experienced,” Miller said. “The past nine years as President of Hensel Phelps Services have been the most rewarding years of my life. An integral part of this reward are the people of our organization — all of you. And I can tell you, that all of you will be part of my life and memories for many years to come.”
Joel Douglass, who began his career with Hensel Phelps in 1988, will succeed Miller, assuming the position of President, Hensel Phelps Services Group. Since joining Hensel Phelps as an Intern in 1988, Douglass has amassed a building portfolio of over $3 billion in completed work and shares Miller's vision for the future of Hensel Phelps Services.
“Joel has demonstrated courageous leadership in helping us deliver process and procedure," Miller said. "He has been instrumental in the development of our Services book of business, and most importantly he has hired and surrounded himself with intelligent leaders and professionals. It was my decision, in conjunction with the Board of Directors, to offer my position and my extended family to Joel for his leadership. This decision has been one of the most rewarding in my career. Not only am I happy for Joel and his family, but I am also happy for the employees and the families of our Hensel Phelps Services Group."
Moving into 2021, Hensel Phelps Services will focus on organic growth and market expansion. To support organic growth, the Services Group market offerings are structured to engage in the Plan. Build. Manage. model and will establish a ‘customer for life’ approach. Utilizing Facility Solutions, Building Systems Integration, and Facility Management in conjunction with large scale construction projects allows Hensel Phelps to differentiate themselves and provides customers with a better facility solution.

“Glen, thank you for taking the risk nine years ago to create what Services is today," Douglass said. "What started as a napkin sketch is now nearly 100-employees strong, and provides services from coast to coast and beyond. Our three years working together to develop the Hensel Phelps Services program has been the most energizing and rewarding time in my career. Moving forward, I am excited to lead the further development of the team and our offerings as we continue to grow Hensel Phelps Services.”
