Title

John Wall, a dedicated engineering professional and North Carolina native, serves as a Branch Manager at F&R, bringing a blend of technical expertise and a passion for mentorship to his role. Born in Smithfield and raised primarily in Louisburg, NC, John discovered his aptitude for mathematics and a desire for hands-on work early on, which naturally led him to a career in engineering. He finds deep satisfaction in seeing the direct impact of his work and contributing to projects that enhance and improve local communities.

John’s career at F&R is a testament to his dedication and growth. He has progressed from a field technician to a Branch Manager, continuously expanding his expertise in Construction Materials Testing and Special Inspections. This journey has been particularly rewarding due to the opportunities he’s had to train and develop technicians, inspectors, and project managers, paying forward the mentorship he received. John values F&R’s “family” environment and its unwavering commitment to trust, a principle he considers non-negotiable in the engineering field.

John’s leadership philosophy centers on developing talent, achieving excellence, and operating with integrity. He believes these three elements are the foundation for sustainable success for his team, clients, and the business as a whole. He is committed to fostering the next generation of engineering professionals while upholding F&R’s legacy of quality.

Outside of work, John embraces his roles as a husband to Brittany and a father to his two boys, Jackson and Lincoln. He enjoys serving as a “full-time snack distributor, amateur tour guide, and jungle gym” for his children. Family time is his ultimate recharge, whether they’re hiking new trails, exploring science and history museums, or conquering playgrounds. John cherishes rediscovering the world through his children’s eyes, finding inspiration in their curiosity and wonder.

“Engineering lets us literally build better communities. But what makes it truly rewarding is developing a team that takes pride in that work, knowing we’re delivering results that stand the test of time, both in our projects and in the people we train.”
