About Erica

I strongly believe it is not what you sell, it’s what you stand for. I communicate and connect with individuals with true intent knowing that I will make a positive and often life-changing impact in their lives. Listening, learning, inspiring change, and helping others see the possibilities in their world are what drives me to do what I do every day.

I joined Joseph Chris Partners in 2000 with several years of recruiting experience and the confidence to take on more professionally. Thriving and growing within an organization that empowers its team is critical, and I'm grateful to have found that environment here. In 2020, I made the big move to the great state of Texas and have loved being part of the entire JCP team.

With a focus exclusively on the construction and real estate development industries, I have been instrumental in securing top talent for companies nationwide for over twenty years. My ability to identify exceptional talent, understand each client's needs, and nurture relationships has contributed to my success. I am proud to be a respected industry thought leader, staying connected with today's influencers and up-and-coming leaders.

Additionally, I am a podcast co-host of "Off the Hook with Erica & Luke". Luke Hill and I host influential figures from across the construction industry and share insightful discussions on a wide range of topics including business development, relationship building, hiring top talent, and building a thriving company.

I recently completed my "Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in the Workplace" training certificate through the University of South Florida. Currently, I am serving on a subcommittee for the National Association of Homebuilders' DEI/Culture Vibrancy Task Force. I am also an active member of the Greater Houston Builders Association (GHBA) and Professional Women in Building (PWB).

    "Erica Lockwood is by far the best recruiter that I have ever worked with. It's very easy to send a large quantity of resumes. It's much more difficult to send qualified candidates who would fit into an organization. And, that is what Erica does. She takes the time to get to know you, your company and your culture before providing any candidates, saving you time and money. I have worked with several other recruiting firms in the past. Erica Lockwood and her team are truly exceptional compared to any other firm I have worked with."
