ENR Southeast 2023 Top Young Professional Honoree: AJ Meyer
January 16, 2023
Congratulations to ANF’s Arthur (AJ) Meyer for being recognized as one of ENR Southeast’s 2023 Top Young Professionals!
Not just a standout as ANF’s Vice President of Project Development, AJ stays busy, lending his expertise and time to diverse community organizations throughout South Florida. Over 13 years in the industry and six at his current position, Meyer was instrumental in helping ANF Group secure construction projects for high-profile projects, ultimately tripling a $60-million business unit into a $180-million business unit in less than three years. He helped spearhead the company’s portfolio diversification and was instrumental in its first-ever strategic planning session in 2018. In the past year, he has secured new development opportunities for ANF and not solely general contractor assignments. But Meyer’s hard work doesn’t stop when he clocks out. Meyer is “a face for the construction industry communitywide” thanks to his work with his alma mater, Florida International University, serving on the FIU President’s Council as well as a board member and chair of the membership committee, where he serves as a link between the business and academic communities. An Eagle Scout himself, Meyer is an executive board member of the Scouts’ South Florida Council, still finding the time to serve on the Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce as the Workforce Housing Committee chair and serving nearly a decade on the Urban Land Institute and on the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, lobbying members of Congress to garner support for legislation supporting its mission.
Selected honorees are up-and-comer young professionals under the age of 40 who are leading the charge and driving industry forward, while making positive impacts to their industries and communities. A total of 20 honorees were selected from more than 90 entries.
