Former Woolpert Chief Operating Officer Scott Cattran has been appointed as the architecture, engineering and geospatial company’s new president and CEO.
Cattran started work with Woolpert in 1999 as a phase manager in the Dayton, Ohio, headquarters and has since helped develop the firm’s Western presence and secure sales worth more than $30 million for the Virginia office, the company said Tuesday.
He has received a scholarship to take this year’s Global Executive M.B.A. program at Duke University™s Fuqua School of Business.
Woolpert noted that the appointment coincided with the company’s news of its 2015 profits and sales amounting to $8.6 million and $125.8 million, respectively.
“The strategic plan that we set into motion at the end of 2014 helped us focus and work collaboratively as a firm in 2015, ” Cattran stated.
He added that he plans to continue the company’s development into the future as he works with a team to help build on services offered to clients and employees.
Cattran will be based in Dayton following his appointment.
