Skanska has announced a senior leadership change in its US operations, with long-serving chief financial officer Leo Sinicin set to retire at the end of the year.

Sinicin, who has spent three decades with the group, will step down from his roles as CFO of Skanska USA Building and Skanska USA on 31 December 2025.

He will be succeeded by Dan DeRooy, currently vice president of finance at Skanska USA Building. DeRooy will assume the CFO position for both businesses on 1 January 2026 and will join the Skanska USA Building senior leadership team, reporting to president and chief executive Clay Haden.

Sinicin has held the CFO role at Skanska USA Building for around 20 years, and for Skanska USA for 13 of those years. Haden described him as “a cornerstone of our financial leadership,” noting his involvement in major strategic decisions and his influence on the development of the company’s US operations.

DeRooy has worked for Skanska for 20 years, including 12 years as corporate director of financial reporting and seven years as financial reporting manager.

“Dan brings a wealth of experience and a deep understanding of our business,” said Haden. “Leo set a high bar, and I’m confident Dan will build on that legacy with vision and integrity.”
