Hill, chairman of the board and CEO at Vulcan Materials, currently presides over the nation’s largest producer of construction aggregates.
First joining Vulcan in 1979, Hill took on a variety of operations and general management assignments throughout his career there. He spent 1990 to 1996 in sales and operations management roles at Redlands Stone Products before rejoining Vulcan as vice president and general manager of the Southwest Division.
The company named Hill president and CEO in 2014. Vulcan’s Don James, who was enshrined in the Pit & Quarry Hall of Fame nine years ago, described Hill in 2014 as “a proven leader with vast operational and superlative management skills.”
