Harrison Bain

Senior Project Manager

Brasfield Gorrie

Like many people in the industry, Harrison’s path to construction was influenced by his family. His extended family includes engineers, landscape architects, and interior designers, so he was exposed to those related fields. But it was his father—a dentist who was also a skilled carpenter—who was Harrison’s most direct influence. From the time Harrison was small, his father worked around their home on a variety of projects, always with Harrison in tow, helping as much as possible. Harrison fell in love with building and was thrilled when he realized he could make it his career. Fierce about organization, he enjoys the building process and the satisfaction he gets from a well-executed plan. Still, his primary joy is in relationships. When Harrison starts a project, he’s excited to learn about the owner and the owner’s goals for his or her project. He uses that excitement as motivation, knowing that when he’s motivated to build something great for an owner, success is never far behind.

Harrison is a trusted project manager with experience in every aspect of preconstruction and construction. He has developed and managed budgets, schedules, project plans, teams, and communication and closeout tools for successful multimillion-dollar projects. Harrison oversees the project management team; provides guidance; and works side-by-side with the superintendent to maintain the project’s budget, schedule, safety, and quality. He serves as your primary contact throughout the project.
