STERLING HEIGHTS, MI — Roncelli, one of Michigan’s largest construction services companies, with operations throughout the state, Midwest, and Canada, announces the recent expansion of its executive leadership team, under the strategic direction of company President & CEO, Gino Roncelli.
Four new chief officer positions were officially added to Roncelli’s management group, developed in response to the company’s continued growth, and to support evolving corporate goals and future expansion. The newly created roles include: Jim Carnacchi as Chief Preconstruction Officer, Michael Cairns as Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Paul Day as Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Core Markets and Jereme Poxson as Chief Operating Officer of Specialized Markets. All chief officers also are partners in Roncelli’s employee-owned company structure.
“The Roncelli company roots began humbly as a family-founded small business, but fast forward nearly six decades later, and we are operating at an entirely different scope and speed. And we need, now more than ever, to expand and further specialize the leadership team that will carry us into the future,” Roncelli said. “The collective knowledge and expertise between Jim, Michael, Paul, and Jereme is exactly what we need at the helm to help support our momentum and long-term vision.”
Promoted from Vice President of Estimating to Chief Preconstruction Officer, Carnacchi is responsible for leading the company’s Preconstruction and Estimating Division, including management of the bidding process, awarding contracts to subcontractors, and ensuring accurate cost estimates for projects. With Roncelli since 1994, Carnacchi’s experience and expertise is critical in setting the foundation for each project's success, through strategic planning, budgeting and collaboration. Carnacchi is a graduate of Ferris State University with a degree in construction management. He has a Michigan Builders License and is U.S. Green Building Council LEED and OSHA 30 certified.
Cairns, Roncelli’s CFO, is actually the only new C-suite leader that initially assumed his new responsibilities in previous years, but is officially being announced as CFO with the company leadership restructuring at this time. Cairns is responsible for oversight of the company’s accounting department, financial operations, and risk management. He has been a Certified Public Accountant in Michigan since 1994, and has been with Roncelli since 1999. He is a member of the Michigan Association of CPAs, Past President and Board Member of CFMA-Detroit, and Past Board Member of Detroit Area Construction Association. Cairns is a graduate of University of Detroit Mercy with a Bachelor of Business Administration in accountancy.
