Steven Wassersug

In his role as President of Timberline Construction, Steve utilizes over 30 years of construction and real estate industry experience to drive growth and continue expanding Timberline’s market share and operational excellence. Steve’s outstanding leadership and team-building skills enhance the company’s operations in our continued drive for excellence in client service and quality work. Steve takes great pride in making a positive impact in the construction industry, exceeding client expectations as well as fostering a culture that makes Timberline a truly exceptional place to work. 

His many years in the real estate industry, as an owner, investor, property manager and contractor provide Steve with a unique perspective on, and, in-depth understanding of the intricacies of the real estate business―a key value-add to Timberline’s clients. Steve spent 15 years at Jones Lang LaSalle (formerly Spaulding & Slye) beginning as a Field Superintendent, quickly advancing through the ranks to eventually lead the $100 million construction group. Under Steve’s leadership, JLL’s business grew throughout the New England region and included commercial development together with corporate interiors and ground-up projects for industry-leading organizations across diverse industries from life sciences and technology to industrial, manufacturing and higher education. Working side by side on a daily basis with brokers, property managers and the development team, honed Steve’s real estate and development skills and gave him valuable insight into their daily needs.

Following JLL, Steve was a Principal with Marcus Partners, a real estate private equity firm, where he oversaw design and construction on all new and existing projects. He also played a key role in the acquisition process and worked closely with asset management through the life cycle of each investment.

Steve enjoys long-term valued friendships with a number of Timberline’s team members having worked together for over 20 years. He began his construction career while in high school when he worked as a laborer for a local contractor. That ignited what became a lifelong passion for the construction industry and built environment.
