# Building Future Leaders, Not Just Filling Roles With CBG

August 3, 2025

[Success Stories](https://amundsongroup.com/success-stories/)

**How AG helped one of America’s top builders scale talent with precision across Florida.**

### The Setup

CBG Building Company is a nationally respected general strategy contractor known for high-end multifamily developments. As their Florida operation expanded, so did the need for field-proven leaders who could keep complex, high-value projects on track.

They weren’t just looking for more candidates. **They were looking for the right ones.**

### The Problem

CBG had worked with multiple recruiters before. The pattern was familiar: high volume, low relevance.
Too many resumes. Not enough people with the right experience, track record, or mindset to grow with the business.

They needed **a partner who could cut through the noise and deliver senior-level construction talent** built for leadership.

**That’s where Amundson Group stepped in.**

### The Work

We got aligned early with CBG’s executive team to **embed talent strategy into their growth plan**.

- Mapped sourcing to the org chart and future headcount needs
- Targeted professionals with strong portfolios and upward potential
- Crafted tailored value propositions to win talent in a competitive market
- Delivered tight, vetted shortlists, focused on technical skill, leadership, and cultural fit

**We weren’t just recruiting. We were shaping their next layer of leadership.**

### The Results

**Over our engagement, AG delivered:**

- **14 hires across** across::
  - Superintendents
  - PMs
  - Estimating
  - Director of Project Management
- **Of 50%** of placed candidates promoted within 9 months
- **7 Days** average time to fill
- Successful delivery of multiple multimillion- dollar projects

### Why it worked

- Because we **went deep, not wide**.
- Because we **focused on fit, not just fill.**
- Because CBG let us act as an **extension of their leadership** team, not a vendor.

### STILL BUILDING

**AG continues to support CBG’s talent strategy** as they grow across the Southeast and into new markets.
