About Bowen Executive

Specialist retained executive search in U.S. civil construction.

Nick Prokop - Founder

Nick grew up in a civil construction family in Sydney, Australia — civil engineers who built their own construction business.

He started in construction search in Sydney in 2011 and has run a North American civil construction desk since 2024. Bowen Executive works only in U.S. civil construction, Texas first.

What that means for you

One market only: U.S. civil construction, Texas first — Houston, Dallas–Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio.
Both roles: Site Superintendents running the work, and Civil Leadership from Project Manager to President.
Wet utilities and underground pipe, WWTP / WTP, heavy civil and major infrastructure, site development and earthworks, land development, municipal streets and drainage, roads and transport.
The people who fit are already running jobs. They get approached directly, not advertised to.

Texas is our primary market

Civil GCs in Houston, Dallas–Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio are hiring from the same pool of experienced Civil Leadership and Site Superintendents, across infrastructure, underground utilities, site development, excavation, drainage, land development, water and wastewater treatment, and public works.

Heavy civil. Wet utilities. Civil infrastructure. Nothing outside it.
