Phil Cleaveland is making his mark in construction with a leadership approach that puts others first.

鈥淧hil is a servant leader who operates by elevating those around him and putting other people first,鈥� wrote Emily Steele, senior marketing coordinator with Mortenson, when nominating the 18-year industry veteran for All-Star recognition.

Over his 13 years with Mortenson, Cleaveland has led some of the company’s most complex and technical projects. He started his career with Mortenson in Minneapolis and Iowa City. In 2017, he joined the newly established Portland office, and quickly emerged as a leader in the healthcare sector, supporting projects for organizations like Oregon Health & Science University, Kaiser Permanente, Adventist and The Oregon Clinic.

Cleaveland’s exceptional project management stems from family influences. His passion for construction and dedication to customer service were inspired by his father, who worked as a service pipefitter for 35 years, and his mother, who worked as an ICU nurse.

Most recently, Cleaveland led a 10-year phased campus development program for a local utility client, utilizing the progressive design-build delivery method. The first major project in the program won a DBIA national award.

Cleaveland helped launch Mortenson’s Empowered Program, a mentor-based initiative that develops minority, women and veteran-owned businesses. He also mentors Mortenson team members.
