, /PRNewswire/ — Radiance Technologies (Radiance) is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Scott Parker, Chief Financial Officer of the $5+ billion Gray, Inc. (Gray), to its Board of Directors. Gray is a family-and-employee-owned, fully integrated design-builder specializing in engineering, architecture, construction, digital and automation solutions, specialty equipment manufacturing, and real estate services.
“Scott brings exactly what we need as we continue to grow: deep financial expertise and real operational experience from scaling a major enterprise,” said Radiance’s CEO, Bill Bailey. “Plus, his background with employee ownership structures makes him a natural fit for our culture as a 100% employee-owned company.”
Mr. Parker brings more than 35 years of financial leadership experience to the Radiance board. He began his career at Ernst & Young in Lexington, Kentucky, where he advanced from staff accountant to audit manager and served a diverse client base that included financial institutions, coal companies, manufacturers, distributors, and contractors.
Since joining Gray in 1989, Mr. Parker has held a series of senior leadership roles within the organization, including Controller, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Operating Officer at Gray Construction, a core subsidiary of the enterprise. Currently serving as CFO of Gray, he oversees financial and tax planning functions and works alongside leadership on all strategic growth initiatives, including mergers and acquisitions.
Throughout his career at Gray, Mr. Parker has played a pivotal role in transformational initiatives. He led the creation and management of the company’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), which now represents approximately 23% of employee ownership. He has overseen the selection and conversion of accounting systems, provided legal and contractual negotiation support, and guided two startup operations from inception.
Mr. Parker is a Certified Public Accountant and currently serves on the board of Robins & Morton, a Birmingham-based healthcare contractor with more than $2 billion in revenue. He also previously served as Board Chair of Diamond Antenna and Microwave, a Massachusetts-based assembler of specialty components that operated as a 100% ESOP until its sale in late 2024, and as a board member of North Highland, an Atlanta-based consulting firm.
Mr. Parker holds a Bachelor of Science in Accounting with a minor in Computer Science from the University of Kentucky.
