Damiecki to lead CohnReznick’s Construction Practice

New York, NY – November 1, 2023 – CohnReznick LLP, one of the leading advisory, assurance, and tax firms in the United States, today announced that Scott E. Damiecki, CPA, CCIFP, Partner, is assuming the role of Construction Industry Leader effective February 1, 2024. This is a critical time for the firm’s Construction practice which is currently experiencing substantial growth and a rise in client demand as a result of the nation’s historic investment in infrastructure.

In tandem with the practice’s ongoing growth nationwide and increasing presence within the sector, the firm has expanded in markets such as Texas and South Florida where there is a significant need for industry leading, client-centric construction services. The practice is also advancing its capabilities within the intersection of ESG and infrastructure – specifically focusing on governance and integrity monitoring work.

Damiecki has more than 25 years of construction industry experience serving general contractors, subcontractors, engineers, real estate developers, and property owners. As the practice continues to expand, he will work closely with an experienced leadership team including Amy Benbrook, Partner; Anthony Campolo, Partner; Tom Greenwalt, Partner; Michael Lipari, Partner; and Eric Rafail, Partner.

“On behalf of the firm, I would like to extend our deep gratitude to Jack, our outgoing Construction leader, for dedicating nearly two decades to the practice, its clients, and its people,” said Gary Levy, Chief Strategy and Growth Officer. “Jack’s outstanding talent, client service, and vision built the foundation for this burgeoning practice and solidified its position as an industry leader. As Scott steps into this role, I look forward to the many ways that he and the entire leadership team will continue to drive the practice forward.”

Notes Damiecki, “I am thrilled to have the opportunity to lead a dynamic practice alongside such a talented leadership team. This is an exciting time to work in the construction industry – a time full of opportunities to innovate, grow, and expand our service capabilities.”

Adds Jack A. Callahan, Partner and outgoing Construction Industry Leader, “It has been my honor to lead the exceptional team of construction professionals at CohnReznick all these years. We have been able to grow this regional practice into a national practice that Construction Executive Magazine annually ranks as a Top 10 accounting firm for construction. Scott’s strong leadership capabilities and commitment to exceptional client service at the helm will continue to drive the practice forward for years to come.”
