Cornick has worked for Gilbane for more than 15 years in field and operations roles, and most recently directed business development in New Jersey and served as Principal in charge of strategic projects and accounts. He has extensive experience elevating Gilbane’s presence in New Jersey and working directly with clients across the company’s market sectors and delivery methods.
Cornick takes the helm from Dan Shea, Vice President, a construction executive who has played a senior leadership role in New Jersey for nine years. Shea will remain a part of the company’s operational team, focusing on project delivery excellence and strategic initiatives in advance of his planned retirement.
“Chris has been such an integral part of our ongoing success in New Jersey,” Shea said. “I am confident that under Chris’ leadership Gilbane, our clients, and the communities we build will experience even greater success.”
“Time and time again, we have seen Chris grow Gilbane’s business in New Jersey and cement our company as one of the most trusted and influential construction companies in the Garden State,” said Paul Choquette III, Regional President, Gilbane Building Company. “Chris is a true partner to our clients and committed to working with them to deliver the best outcomes, so he was a natural choice for this role."
