Jim Radich, executive vice president and COO of Granite, plans to retire in July.
The company will not fill the void with a successor. In a corresponding move, Granite’s vice presidents of construction (Brian Dowd, Michael Tatusko and Bradley Williams) and senior vice president of materials Brad Estes will report directly to Granite president and CEO Kyle Larkin.
“Having joined Granite in 1980, Jim’s numerous and meaningful contributions to Granite span decades,” Larkin says. “Jim’s leadership has been instrumental as we transformed the company over the last four years, and we are all grateful for his service to Granite. We will miss him and wish Jim and his family all the best as he enters this next phase of his life.”
As Granite’s executive vice president and COO, Radich is responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the company and providing the leadership to ensure the appropriate reporting procedures, people and systems are in place to meet the company’s operating requirements and financial goals.
Radich has served in a variety of leadership roles during his tenure, including project manager on key heavy civil projects, chief estimator in the vertically integrated business, vice president and regional manager within northern California, and senior vice president and California manager.
Radich was employed outside of Granite between 1993 and 2011.
