REAL ESTATE BRIEFS: MARCH 19

Edward Morgan

United Construction hires Edward Morgan as CFO

United Construction Co., a general contractor and design-builder serving Northern and Southern Nevada industrial and commercial markets, has named Edward “Ed” Morgan as its new chief financial officer, beginning March 7. This announcement comes as UCC’s beloved CFO Brad Breach announces his retirement after 35 years of professional service to the company.

Morgan joins UCC with several decades of accounting, finance, analysis, reporting and operations leadership experience in Colorado, Northern California and the Truckee/Tahoe region, serving the majority of those roles for residential and commercial real estate development companies. Most recently, Morgan served as the chief operating officer for Taylor Builders, one of the Sacramento region’s largest land developers. As COO at Taylor, he instituted policies, procedures, and controls to help a start-up business grow into a large development company through leading the human resources, administration, risk management and finance teams to success. Before his career with Taylor Builders, Morgan was a vice president and the corporate controller for Mountainside Partners and East West Partners-Tahoe, where he secured public financing and construction loans, managed accounting and project teams and prepared annual business plans. In addition to an established accounting and auditing career in Colorado and holding a Master of Accountancy degree from the University of Nevada, Reno, Morgan is a finance veteran in the construction industry.

As CFO, Morgan will oversee the accounting and information technology teams, company finances, employee benefits, contract and labor law, taxation and other financial and human resources-related roles for both United Construction and United Concrete Specialties. He also will spearhead organizational productivity initiatives, cost-control measures, risk management and strategic goals alongside Whittaker, chief executive officer Michael Russell and Operations Manager Casey Gunther.
