Why I work at Gibbs
I really like that Gibbs is very family-oriented – it feels like a family. The people I work with are kind, friendly, and supportive. There is an open-door policy and I feel comfortable talking about anything. As the receptionist, I’m most people’s first impression of the company, and I’m proud to represent Gibbs Construction.

Big day today! We held our first company-wide, in-person quarterly safety meeting of 2020 - in a very safe Covid-conscious manner, of course. It was so wonderful to be able to be together again. The cherry on top was a stunning and thoughtful surprise that project manager Kelly Dellsperger made for CEO Lauren Gibbs as a belated anniversary gift. On behalf of all #TeamGibbs members, Kelly’s beautiful work marks Lauren’s first year as the owner of Gibbs Construction, after purchasing it from her dad, founder Larry Gibbs. Lauren was thrilled and so grateful and thankful. #blessed #grateful #thankyou #gibbsconstruction
Happy CEO anniversary my friend! So proud of you Lauren R Gibbs!
What a year you've had to navigate for your 1st year as CEO! 👏
