Derrick Seitz

Beverly, MA Windover Construction, a construction management firm focused on leading through innovation, has promoted Derrick Seitz to project executive. With 25 years in the industry, Seitz is a technical expert who excels at planning, using his experience as an estimator, superintendent, and project manager to ensure a project’s success from the start. Seitz joined Windover in 2012 as a project manager and has led projects in a variety of markets during his career. As the multifamily market lead for Windover, he has built some of the firm’s largest and most complex projects. He also helped solidify Windover’s position as an expert and industry leader in modular construction. 

Seitz’ technical knowledge, understanding of current and trending market conditions, and ability to drive results collaboratively among teams have made him a trusted advisor to clients and partners at every stage of a project. 

In his role as project executive, Seitz will continue to advise, plan, and build relationships to grow Windover’s portfolio, especially in the multifamily sector. 

Having recently completed numerous large-scale developments across New England – including the second phase of the Harborwalk Community in Plymouth, MA and the Halyard Apartments in Gloucester, MA – Seitz has established a strong reputation for being not only a building expert but an authority in the many aspects of project development. 

“Derrick has worn many hats since he started with Windover in 2012,” said Randy Catlin, executive vice president and COO at Windover. “He is a builder at heart and has been instrumental in helping many of our clients plan their projects. He digs in at the earliest stages, partners with the design team, and stays with the details through construction to make sure his projects and teams succeed. His experience, deep technical knowledge, and passion for his work make him an effective leader, great partner to our clients, and a powerful addition to Windover’s leadership team.”
