2017 Women in Real Estate Spotlight - Robin Magnussen Clark
Project Field Administrator
Kiewit Corp.
Years in real estate: 26
How have you navigated obstacles to achieve success in your career: Being a woman in construction requires tolerance and stamina. I use my knowledge where best served and I don’t back down at an opportunity to learn more. I treat others as equals and support my projects and teams with dignity.
How do you play your strengths to your advantage in your career: I am a very genuine person, my personality doesn’t have a switch. I am an authoritative yet respectful leader and very considerate at the same time.
What trends are you seeing for this year: The first part of 2017 brought many employment opportunities in commercial construction. Employment in construction in both the private and commercial sector is still at a high in both the Boston and South Shore areas.
What do you do for fun: I am at my best “playing outside,” whether it’s in the garden at home or traveling with my husband.
