McKinley Architecture and Engineering Firm announces key leadership promotions

McKinley Architecture and Engineering, a leading architecture and engineering firm celebrating its 50th year, has announced a series of strategic initiatives focused on regional expansion and client experience.

Building on its established success – over 2,500 buildings completed and $2 billion in construction value – McKinley is expanding its regional footprint and investing in key personnel.

“Our significant investments and progress across all pillars of our strategy – an expanded development team, as well as enhanced services and improved efficiency – have combined to achieve improved client relations and align with the firm’s legacy of delivering successful projects through experience and innovation,” stated Ernie Dellatorre, Director of Business Development.

“We’ve experienced tremendous growth and momentum and are continuing to make significant investments in people and operations while exercising quality client management,” stated David H. McKinley, Chairman of McKinley Architecture and Engineering.

The firm has appointed its first Chief Operating Officer, Sean Doyle. Doyle will oversee staffing, resource allocation, technology, and financial management, fostering a collaborative work environment and maintaining lasting client relationships.

“McKinley Architecture and Engineering has continued to identify exceptional people in the hiring process, most notably, through referrals and word of mouth,” said Doyle. “When you attract high-performing people that care about what they do and you recognize them for it, you have a sustainable model.”

John Jefferis has also been promoted to Director of Project Management in recognition of his leadership in integrating new technology that has significantly improved project delivery.

“John was at the forefront of integrating new technology into our processes which has made an extraordinary impact on our project deliveries,” said Doyle.

McKinley’s new office in Martinsburg, West Virginia opens up new markets in the eastern panhandle of West Virginia, Hagerstown, Maryland, and Winchester, Virginia. Combined with existing locations in Wheeling and Charleston, West Virginia, and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the firm offers expertise in a wide range of project categories, including education, sports and entertainment, commercial and retail, warehouse and industrial, government, institutional buildings, and historic preservation.

“After several years of significant growth of our Pittsburgh office, we’ve outgrown our space and in Summer 2024 will be moving into new offices to accommodate considerable progress of that team and our commitment to expanding and serving the Pennsylvania market,” added McKinley.

McKinley’s commitment to excellence has been recognized nationally. PSMJ Resources awarded McKinley the 2023 Circle of Excellence Award and the 2023 A/E/C Employer of Choice Award.

These strategic initiatives position McKinley Architecture and Engineering for continued success in the years to come.
