Green Brick Partners, Inc. Announces Promotion of Bobby Samuel to Executive Vice President of Land

PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Green Brick Partners, Inc. (NYSE: GRBK) (the “Company” or “Green Brick”) today announced the promotion of Bobby Samuel to Executive Vice President of Land. This announcement recognizes the significant contributions and leadership of Mr. Samuel that have played an integral role in Green Brick’s growth, including being named by Fortune Magazine the past six years as one of the fastest growing public homebuilders and land development companies in the country.

Mr. Samuel first joined Green Brick in 2018, serving as our National Vice President of Land. In this role, Mr. Samuel has and continues to oversee the land acquisition and development activities of Green Brick and its subsidiary builders. Mr. Samuel received a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from Texas A&M University and a Master of Business Administration from the Neeley School of Business at Texas Christian University.

Jim Brickman, a Co-Founder and the CEO of Green Brick, said, “Bobby’s promotion to Executive Vice President and now serving as one of our named executive officers recognizes not only Bobby’s accomplishments and contributions, but also emphasizes how we view land as the foundation of our business and the driver of our profitability and our industry-leading margins.” Mr. Brickman continued, “When Bobby started we only had approximately 6,300 lots owned and controlled, while, as of the end of 2024, that number has grown to over 37,800, a 500% increase in a 7-year timeframe. We’ve been able to expand our land position, including in some of the best new home markets in the country, through the hard work and skill of Bobby and his team. It is not a coincidence that Green Brick’s overall growth correlates with the expansion of our strong land and lot positions. This promotion recognizes the vital role that Bobby has and will continue to play in the overall growth story of our Company.”

Mr. Samuel said, “I am honored and privileged to have played a part in the tremendous growth of Green Brick over the last seven years. But I am even more excited about what I see on the horizon for Green Brick’s future. I am surrounded by a tremendously skilled and dedicated team on the land acquisition and development side of our business. I look forward to helping our team members execute on Green Brick Partners’ superior land and lot position.”
