Tighe & Bond opens new Westwood office

Westfield, MA Tighe & Bond opened a new eastern Massachusetts office.  The 4,800 s/f workplace on One University Ave. provides a base of operation to better serve the company’s Greater Boston Area clients. Staffed initially with a team of approximately 10, Tighe & Bond plans to expand its workforce at this office to approximately 20 employees. Director of business development, Adam Yanulis, and senior project manager, Benjamin Levesque, P.E., BCEE, are providing leadership for the upstart of Tighe & Bond’s newest office.  Yanulis has more than 30 years of providing leadership to the public sector engineering and construction industry in eastern Massachusetts.  Levesque is a civil and environmental engineer and senior project manager with more than 16 years of experience in the municipal water and wastewater industry. “We are a firm that is committed to our clients, and the many longstanding relationships we have developed.  Locating an office minutes from Boston allows Tighe & Bond to more readily respond to growing client service demands.  Plus, our team at this location has a strong local knowledge of the region, and years of experience providing comprehensive engineering and environmental services – which is sure to benefit both existing and new clients,” says Tighe & Bond’s president and CEO, David Pinsky. “Also, as we continue growing our business, this office addition provides a great opportunity to tap into the talented work force available in the Greater Boston Area,” he said. In addition to better serving its eastern Massachusetts clients, Tighe & Bond is continuing its plan for geographic growth to further reinforce its position as a New England leader in engineering and environmental services.  This new office represents yet another growth opportunity for the firm that is seeing office expansions and staffing growth in multiple offices throughout New England.  Tighe & Bond currently has more than 260 employees. Tighe & Bond’s other office locations include Pocasset, Westfield, and Worcester, Mass.; Middletown and Shelton, Conn.; and Portsmouth, N.H.  Westfield serves as the firm’s corporate headquarters. Not surprisingly, the firm also has seen substantial revenue growth. This past March, the Environmental Business Journal (EBJ), a business research publication which provides high value strategic business intelligence to the environmental industry, presented Tighe &Bond with a bronze medal for the mid-size firm’s notable business achievement in revenue growth in 2014. Founded in 1911, Tighe & Bond provides engineering and environmental services for clients in government, industry, healthcare, education, real estate, energy, and water/wastewater markets.
