Burns & McDonnell Executive Jon Wright Joins House of Bricks® to Bring Industrial-Scale Insight to Startups

House of Bricks®, the execution-first platform for Seed to Series A founders, proudly welcomes Jon Wright, Senior Vice President and Buildings Market Leader at Burns & McDonnell, to its Advisory Board. A seasoned executive with over 25 years of experience across the Manufacturing and Engineering & Construction industries, Wright brings a rare combination of operational depth, business consulting acumen, and strategic leadership — Brick by Brick®.

In his current role, Wright leads a multidisciplinary team delivering full-scope, end-to-end business consulting and capital project execution services across the Aviation, Commercial, Federal, and Manufacturing sectors. His background spans engineering, supply chain, operations management, consolidations, greenfield development, M&A integrations, and business continuity planning. Having worked with companies like Schlumberger, Procter & Gamble, and J.M. Smucker before joining Burns & McDonnell in 2011, Wright has built a career on turning complexity into clarity—and vision into value.

“Jon is a builder of teams, systems, and scalable businesses,” said Adam House Sr., Founder and CEO of House of Bricks®. “His ability to align capital investments with operational excellence is exactly what our founders need as they grow into real businesses. We’re honored to have him join our Advisory Board.”

“Founders don’t just need advice—they need infrastructure that works,” said Wright. “What House of Bricks® is doing is more than mentorship. It’s a playbook for execution. I’m excited to help early-stage companies avoid costly missteps and accelerate outcomes.”

Wright joins House of Bricks® at a pivotal moment as the company expands its S.O.S.™ (Strategy, Innovation, Measurement, People, Leverage, Execution), launches its Advisory Board, and scales its fee + equity model to empower founders to accelerate growth, do more with less, and increase enterprise value.

Wright will also support House of Bricks’ growing community of veterans and first-time founders, reinforcing the power of relationship capital and peer-driven success. This is more than mentorship of its infrastructure for scalable execution.
