Employee Owned (ESOP): Building on Our Values for the Next 100 Years

As Higley Construction celebrates 100 years, we are proud to announce our transition to an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), making us a 100% employee-owned company. This milestone ensures our independence for the next century and deepens our connection to the values that have guided us since 1925: Commitment, Excellence, Ethics, Respect, and People.

What Ownership Means

What Employee Ownership Means

At Higley, every project is personal. Now, with employee ownership, every team member has a stake in our success. This strengthens our culture of accountability, collaboration, and innovation — and ensures that our clients, partners, and communities benefit from a team that is truly invested in delivering the best results.

Building on our Values


  • COMMITMENT: Employee ownership reinforces our dedication to every client, project, and community we serve. We’re here for the long term — standing behind our work and each other.

  • EXCELLENCE: When every employee is an owner, excellence isn’t just a goal — it’s a shared responsibility. Together, we push for higher standards and better outcomes.

  • ETHICS: Ownership means stewardship. As employee-owners, we honor the trust placed in us with integrity, transparency, and accountability.

  • RESPECT: Respect for our clients, partners, communities, and each other has always defined us.
    As owners, we are even more committed to relationships built on trust and mutual success.

  • PEOPLE: Our people have always been the heart of Higley. Now, they are also the owners — ensuring that our culture of care, collaboration, and growth continues for generations.

Looking Ahead
