Jim Hulsey

Senior Construction Manager

Jim has been with Benchmark and Cachet since 2000, but was on our job sites as a carpenter for years before joining the team. His extensive construction and carpentry experience provide a strong foundation for communicating with the subcontractors and knowing what it takes to build a quality home. Jim grew up in Franklin County and currently resides with his wife Kristy and their 4 children in Union. He graduated from Union High School and Washington Vocational School and has worked in construction his entire life. He started working for his father as soon as he was big enough to swing a hammer. After 8 years with Hulsey Const. and Mueller & Sons, he moved to LJS Const., where he worked as a trim carpenter and foreman for 8 years.
