After 29 years of visionary leadership, we announce the retirement of our Co-Founder and CEO, Jeff Jacob. As the original founder of Jacob & Hefner Associates, Inc., Jeff built the company from the ground up with a clear mission: put the client first and deliver solutions rooted in trust, quality, and long-term value. His commitment to building lasting relationships with clients has been a defining force behind our growth and reputation in the industry. Throughout the years, Jeff led by example, fostering a culture where responsiveness, collaboration, and technical excellence weren’t just values, but expectations. Under his leadership, JHA became a trusted partner on projects that matter,  and a company known for showing up when it counts. Jeff leaves behind not just a successful company, but a lasting legacy built on strong relationships and a deep respect for our clients and community. As we move forward, we invite our clients, partners, and peers to connect with William L. Bohne, P.E., Ryan Blocker, P.E., and Jason Cebulski, P.E., who will continue to lead the JHA engineering team with the same client-first mindset and dedication to excellence. Please join us in celebrating Jeff’s remarkable journey and in wishing him all the best in retirement. #Founder #Leadership #CivilEngineering #Retirement #ClientFocused #Legacy #Succession #ThankYou #Jacobandhefnerassociates
