Sundt Construction, Inc. is pleased to welcome George Hubert to the team as director of information technology. Based out of our Tempe office, George will be responsible for managing the department personnel as well as the company’s long-term strategic technology plan. (Learn more here.) Since Sundt believes that our people are the core of what we do, we wanted to get to know our latest addition. We recently spent a little time talking with George, and this is what we learned.

 When not at work, how do you spend your time?

I enjoy family activities including riding bikes, hiking, playing sports and watching movies. Of course, that’s after homework is done. Disneyland parks are also very important in my life.

 What is it about Sundt that has led you to make your career here?

The rich history of the company was intriguing. The more I learned about Sundt, the more I wanted to be a part of this team. The clincher for me was when I interviewed with most of my staff. I was amazed at how much the IT department had been able to accomplish over the last several years while under tight budgets and tighter staffing.

 What is your proudest professional achievement to date?

My team built a data center from a building shell and moved into it in less than four months. That took a lot of effort, coordination and very long weekends.

 What is one thing that few people know about you?

I delivered my younger daughter at home (on accident).

 What is something you do on a daily basis?

Eat cookies (or something yummy).

 What’s one thing on your bucket list?

I would like to raise/donate enough money to cover one day’s operating cost of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital ($1.7 million/day).

 What’s your goal for your new position?

To inspire my team to go beyond the expected, which is Sundt’s goal for the company as a whole.
