Miles Construction welcomes John Burr and Jim Magrogan, both long-term employees at the Northern Nevada construction firm, to the ownership team.

Founded by Bill Miles in 1986, the Carson City-based full-service general contracting firm has grown into a regional leader in commercial construction.


Burr joined Miles Construction 16 years ago. His construction career began when he was a teen, working summer projects while attending high school. Upon graduation, he entered the trades full time and became a journeyman carpenter foreman. After supervising crews for nearly a decade, Burr transitioned into becoming a highly trained project superintendent with an exemplary safety record. His project portfolio includes a wide range of high-end residential, commercial, industrial, retail, medical and school institution projects.


Prior to joining Miles Construction, Magrogan worked for one of the largest general contractors in the Northern Nevada region as a director of project management. Before calling northern Nevada home, Magrogan worked in the San Francisco area for a nationally ranked general contractor specializing in high-rise residential construction and structural concrete. His experience includes design/build institutional projects for both federal and city entities, along with multiple private sector projects ranging in budget from $1 million to $125 million.


Jim Magrogan

 
As vice president of business operations at Miles Construction, he is responsible for working with multiple project teams from preconstruction through construction to turnover to the client. With his educational background in architecture and his Master of Business Administration, Magrogan leads a project team efficiently and effectively, ensuring all project objectives – budget, schedule, safety, quality and sustainability are achieved.


Miles Construction is currently seeing a boom in business, despite supply chain disruptions and nation-wide labor shortages, managing to keep projects moving and completion dates on target. For more information, visit online at MilesConst.com.
