Construction management firm names vice president

ESTERO — National construction management firm Suffolk has promoted Rod Nobrega to vice president.

Nobrega joined Suffolk in 2016, according to a press release. Since then he has been responsible for some of the firm’s largest projects in the region, including the 55-acre Moorings Park at Grande Lake, Moorings Park Clubhouse and Moorings Park Buildings A, G and R.

His portfolio totals more than $250 million worth of construction in Southwest Florida. His areas of expertise include sectors such as senior living, multi-family residential, hospitality, transportation and health care.

In his new role as vice president, Nobrega will provide leadership to project teams throughout Southwest Florida and will take a hands-on role as project executive for larger projects and strategic accounts in the area. He will guide projects from the earliest phases of pre-construction through completion. 

“Rod is a tremendous leader and has been an integral part of Suffolk’s growth in the region,” says Suffolk General Manager Josh Christensen in a statement. “He brings unique solutions and a people-first approach to all of his projects, and we are confident he will continue to play an important role for us.”

Nobrega was named a Business Observer’s 40 Under 40 winner last year.

Suffolk provides construction management services and real estate capital investment, design, self-perform construction services, technology start-up investment and innovation research/development.

It has 2,500 employees and main offices in Miami, West Palm Beach, Tampa, Estero, Boston, New York, Dallas, Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego.
