The Birmingham Group became pioneers of the executive search niche back in 1967. Although we’re proud to conclude our 50th year of successful growth helping our clients achieve their dreams, we’re also grateful for the amazing clients we get to work with every day. They have helped us become one of the most solid and stable firms in the business.
Our firm continues to use innovative recruiting and placement strategies that attract the best construction talent in the industry, even during an ongoing labor shortage.

Here are a few of our employee highlights from the past year.

A Leading Voice in the Industry
Our CEO, Brian Binke, is held in high esteem by the industry. A variety of major publications continue to acknowledge and feature his expertise on a regular basis. In addition to being a sought-after speaker and recruiter trainer for the construction industry, his valuable insight is regularly published by Construction Today, CBS News and The Wall Street Journal. He is an industry expert on good construction leadership and what it takes to lead your team to success.
Some of Brian’s Featured Quotes:
- “You can’t build infrastructure — roads, bridges, stadiums, hospitals, houses — in China.”
- “The United States is in need of a labor workforce that will bring back a strong middle-class.”
- “Companies want a get-it-done project manager. This is a person who will put in the hours necessary, doesn’t need constant supervision and will take ownership of the project. He might leave at 2 pm one day to see his kid’s game but will stay late the next day.”
Working together with a leading voice in the industry, we remain dedicated and confident in our ability to serve our clients for years to come.
