Turner Construction Company, a member of multiple AGC chapters, has announced key staff promotions to executive leadership roles, further strengthening the Southern California office.

Turner has promoted Brendan Murphy to vice president and operations manager. In this new role, Murphy will be responsible for leading operations in a wide range of high-profile construction projects throughout Southern California.

Turner has also promoted Scott Borland to vice president and construction executive. In this position, Borland will oversee and lead construction services for Turner’s marquee, iconic projects throughout the region.

"Over the last few years, the Turner Southern California office has expanded its reach and successfully taken on complex, large-scale projects," said Kevin Dow, vice president and general manager of Turner’s Southern California office. "We would not have been able to achieve this without the leadership, expertise and commitment that both Brendan and Scott have consistently demonstrated during their time with Turner."

With more than 16 years of experience in the construction industry, Murphy has served as operations manager and provided executive oversight for a variety of hospitality, commercial and retail projects, including the Terranea Resort & Hotel and the Wilshire Grand project in Downtown Los Angeles.

Borland brings to Turner more than 27 years of experience in the construction industry. As a construction executive at Turner, Borland has led construction teams on diverse projects across market sectors. Currently, Borland is overseeing the construction team for the new Wilshire Grand, which will be the tallest structure west of the Mississippi once it is completed in 2016.
