Beverly, MA Windover Construction has promoted Jennifer Robitaille to project executive. Robitaille joined Windover in 2013 and as a senior project manager has led many of the firm’s largest and most complex projects, primarily in the academic sector.

In her role as project executive, Robitaille will provide overall leadership to many of Windover’s academic projects while mentoring and developing people and teams. 

Robitaille has worked on academic campuses around New England, and is adept at seamlessly integrating construction into the campus community. 

Most recently, she completed the second phase of the 106,000 s/f academic center at Endicott College and is currently completing the college’s new 70,000 s/f nursing and health sciences building. A trusted advisor to clients, Robitaille focuses on driving results collaboratively by aligning the entire project team to deliver on the client’s vision.

In addition to the success of each project, Jen has been dedicated throughout her career to the growth of those around her. “Jen truly cares about the success of everyone on the entire project team,” said Stuart Meurer, president and CEO of Windover Construction. “I have been fortunate enough to work with Jen for the past 15 years and have watched her grow into the strong leader she is today. Her high energy and passion for her work are contagious, and she naturally elevates others to a higher level of performance.”
