EMJ Construction Elevates Alex Miller to President to Foster National Expansion

EMJ Construction Appoints Alex Miller as President

On August 19, 2026, EMJ Construction, a significant player in the national commercial construction industry and part of the BLDR Holdings portfolio, announced the promotion of its long-time executive, Alex Miller, to President. This strategic move aims to enhance the company's growth trajectory and operational execution across its extensive client base in the United States.

Located in Chattanooga, Tennessee, EMJ Construction has cemented itself as a leader in the construction sector by leveraging decades of experience, strong client relations, and an unwavering commitment to operational excellence. Miller's appointment represents a continuation of this legacy, as he will take charge of EMJ's efforts to expand its footprint while maintaining high standards of service.

Miller expressed gratitude for the trust placed in him, stating, "I am humbled to be selected as President of EMJ Construction and to have the opportunity to lead our national business. EMJ has an incredibly talented team and a strong foundation built through years of serving our clients. I am proud of what our people have accomplished and excited to continue growing our national footprint and strengthening the relationships that have made EMJ successful."

Miller's promotion coincides with BLDR Holdings' broader strategy of refining its portfolio, aligning more closely with distinct market opportunities. EMJ serves as a cornerstone in this strategy, with the company focusing on enhancing its long-established client relationships and construction expertise.

Notably, this change comes at a time when BLDR Holdings is simultaneously developing TEXBUILT, a construction enterprise that concentrates on growth opportunities specifically within Texas. While EMJ operates on a national level, TEXBUILT is tailored to the unique needs of the Texas market, allowing for distinct strategies that command attention and resources based on the locales served.

Jack Bowen, CEO of BLDR Holdings, remarked on the significance of this structural adjustment, saying, "This structure is about sharpening our focus and positioning our companies to pursue the opportunities where they are best equipped to serve. EMJ's national capabilities and relationships remain central to our future, while TEXBUILT creates an opportunity to bring dedicated expertise and focus to Texas markets."

Miller will be supported by EMJ's existing leadership team that includes key figures such as Chris Grannan and Joey Barbeauld, who oversee preconstruction and construction operations, respectively, as well as Lance Gopffarth, managing the Phoenix office. This strong leadership foundation is expected to facilitate a smooth transition during this pivotal time in the company's evolution.
