Providence, RI Dimeo Construction Company, one of New England’s leading construction management firms, has appointed Blakely Dimeo as business development manager. The appointment marks a historic milestone, as the fourth generation of the Dimeo family to join the company.

“Bringing Blakely on board isn’t just about the next generation of family leadership,” said Stephen Rutledge, president and chief executive officer. “It is also introducing a forward-thinking perspective to build upon the legacy of the organization, which will be critical in these rapidly evolving times for the construction industry.”

Operating across the office network in Boston, Providence, and New Haven, Dimeo will help oversee the company’s regional business development initiatives and strategic progress.
