Triad Associates’ vice president and director of surveying, Greg Juneau, PLS, announced the addition of Jeff Savage to the company’s group of associates. Nominated last fall by his peers and elected by the firm’s board of directors, Savage was recently recognized for his exemplary work and commitment to Triad.

When making the award, Juneau said, “Besides being a super nice guy, Jeff is hard working, conscientious and a very quick study. He’s not afraid to take on challenging assignments. He’s committed to his profession and is studying hard to become a Professional Land Surveyor.”

Savage joined Triad’s survey field crew nearly five years ago. An outdoor enthusiast and always good at math, he accepted a friend’s invitation to interview at Triad. He loved the job from the very start, especially the “change in scenery” where one day he’s surveying a Medina waterfront home and the next day he’s bushwhacking in Black Diamond. Promoted to Party Chief in April 2007, his recent projects include the City of Kirkland and City of Redmond vertical control surveys, Bellevue’s Belcarra Apartments and The Landing in Renton.

Employees selected to become associates have demonstrated over time that they are the best in their field and a role model to others. Associates become eligible to share in the company’s profits, receive additional vacation time and participate in company ownership.
