Sendero Energy Services is proud to announce our President and CEO, Grant Gilbert, has been named one of the Houston Business Journal’s 2024 Most Admired CEOs. This prestigious recognition celebrates Grant’s exceptional leadership, innovative vision, and dedication to both the business world and the community.
A Leader of Vision and Resilience
Grant Gilbert’s journey is a remarkable story of resilience, entrepreneurship, and innovation. From his early days working in his father’s plumbing business to founding Sendero Industries in 2002, Grant’s path has been defined by hard work, foresight, and an unwavering commitment to success. Under his leadership, Sendero Industries evolved from a modest civil contracting company into a $100+ million-a-year industry leader, serving high-profile clients such as Tesla, Amazon, and UPS.
Grant’s keen sense for industry trends led to the creation of Sendero Energy Services in November 2022. The company, focused on renewable energy civil construction, quickly secured contracts worth hundreds of millions of dollars, solidifying its position as a key player in the growing renewable energy sector. Grant’s ability to pivot and adapt to market demands has been a hallmark of his career, and his contributions to sustainability through Sendero Energy Services exemplify his forward-thinking leadership.
Recognition for Leadership and Community Impact
The Houston Business Journal’s Most Admired CEO Awards recognizes individuals not only for their business achievements but also for their contributions to the community. Grant’s leadership extends beyond the boardroom and into the community, where he actively engages in philanthropy. In 2020, he co-founded Pesca de Mayo, an annual fishing tournament that raises funds for Camp Aranzazu, a camp dedicated to children and adults with disabilities and chronic illnesses. This initiative has raised tens of thousands of dollars for a cause close to Grant’s heart, demonstrating his deep commitment to giving back and making a difference.
The Most Admired CEO recognition is a testament to Grant’s remarkable leadership and his dedication to both business excellence and community service. The honorees were selected based on career achievements, leadership skills, and community involvement, making this recognition a well-deserved acknowledgment of Grant’s impact on the industry and beyond.
Looking Toward the Future
Grant’s leadership continues to guide Sendero Energy Services toward new horizons. With a focus on innovation, sustainability, and a commitment to excellence, the future for Sendero looks bright under his direction. As the company continues to expand its renewable energy portfolio and build on its successes, we are excited to see the positive impact Grant and the team will continue to make in the industry.
Grant was officially recognized at the Houston Business Journal’s Most Admired CEO Awards Luncheon on August 30, 2024, at the Marriott Marquis Houston, where he joined 59 other esteemed leaders from across various industries.
