Moss Founder Bob Moss Retires as Chairman of the Board; Scott Moss Named Chairman and CEO

Transition Marks the Next Chapter for Moss Founder After More Than 55 Years in Construction and Two Decades Building One of the Nation's Most Respected Construction Firms

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Moss, a top-ranked national construction firm, announced today that its founder, Bob Moss, has retired as Chairman of the Board after more than 58 years in the construction industry and 22 years building Moss alongside his family and exceptional people into a national firm with approximately 5,000 team members and approximately $5 billion in annual revenues. Scott Moss, who has served as CEO of Moss since March 2020, has assumed the role of Chairman of the Board.

Drawing on more than three decades of executive leadership in construction, including serving as CEO and Chairman of Centex Construction Group, Bob helped build Moss into one of the nation's most recognized construction firms. Today, Moss is one of the top 50 general contractors in the United States and the nation's #1 solar contractor and #1 Florida Contractor as ranked by Engineering News-Record, and has been recognized as a Great Place to Work for 10 consecutive years.

Throughout his career, Bob Moss led construction of projects that have shaped communities across the United States. His portfolio includes landmark projects such as Marlins Park, the Miami Dolphins Training Center, the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix Track, Brightline stations across South Florida, Walt Disney World resort hotels, the Mayo Clinic, and Atlantis Paradise Island in the Bahamas. He has been honored with ENR's Legacy Award, the Boy Scouts of America's Distinguished Citizen Award, and the EASE Foundation's Humanitarian of the Year recognition, and is a member of the University of Florida and Clemson University Construction Halls of Fame. His alma mater, Central Piedmont Community College, named its civil engineering technology program in his honor. The Moss family's legacy in construction education extends to Florida International University, where the Moss School of Construction bears the family name.

Beyond the projects, Bob Moss also helped build a culture. The three core values he helped establish (Honor Relationships, Entrepreneurial Spirit, and Contagious Energy) continue to define how Moss operates and how its people show up every day. He also helped establish the Moss Foundation, ranked among the top five corporate philanthropists in South Florida, which has invested more than $22 million in education, veterans' organizations, first responders, and communities across Florida, Texas, and Hawaii, including a recent $1 million gift from Bob and Sandra Moss to Habitat for Humanity of Broward to establish Moss Estates at Oakland Park, a 10-home affordable homeownership community in Broward County.

"Building Moss with my family has been the honor of my life," said Bob Moss. "What we set out to do was build a place where people could do their best work, where relationships mattered as much as results, and where success was shared. I'm incredibly proud of what this team has built together, and I have every confidence in Scott's leadership and in the future of this company. It's time for me to step back, enjoy the life we've built, and cheer this team on every step of the way."

Scott Moss, who will serve as both Chairman of the Board and CEO, has served as President beginning in 2011 and CEO since March 2020, leading a period of significant growth and national expansion. Today, Moss operates across South Florida, Mid-Florida, Dallas, Hawaii, and a national energy business.

"My father helped us build something rare: a company built on genuine values, genuine relationships, and a genuine belief in people," said Scott Moss. "He taught us to run to the fire, to finish every project better friends than we started, and to build a company set up to thrive in perpetuity. I take the role of Chairman of the Board with deep gratitude and a clear sense of purpose. We will honor everything he helped build by continuing to grow the right way: for our people, our clients, our trade partners, and our communities."

Chad Moss, CEO of Moss Family Office (MFO) Worldwide, oversees the Moss family's holdings, including Moss & Associates, Targa Real Estate Fund, Moss Aviation Group, and the Moss Foundation. MFO Worldwide is committed to the continued growth and long-term stewardship of the Moss family's business and philanthropic mission.

"My father has always led with his heart as much as his mind, and the results speak for themselves," said Chad Moss. "He has helped build a company that will stand the test of time, not because of the buildings, but because of the people and the values he helped instill in all of us. The Moss Family Office is proud to continue supporting Moss' growth and mission, and I look forward to everything ahead under Scott's leadership."
