The Prince George Construction Association and BC Construction Association-North Board of Directors have announced Scott Bone as their new CEO. He replaces Roz Thorn who has retired after  48 years with the association.

Scott Bone is no stranger to the community having spent  more than  20 years working for the City of Prince George as the manager of supply and fleet services. Most recently he was with TransCanada Pipelines in the role as the local contract representative responsible for promoting employment and contracting opportunities associated with major pipeline projects.

“We know that Scott’s proven record as a results-oriented, strategic leader will be critical as we develop and implement programs to grow and serve our membership of over 250 members in the industrial, commercial and institutional construction industry” said board chairs Iain Elder and Ken Morland.

Bone says he is looking forward to “Working with the board of directors and members as well as government/tendering authorities across Northern B.C. to promote construction investment, high industry standards, and effective practices.”
