Beverly, MA – Construction Management and Builders, Inc. (CM&B) announced the appointment of Tim Puopolo as president, marking a significant leadership milestone and the second generation of the Puopolo family’s stewardship of the company.
“Tim exemplifies everything CM&B stands for,” said Kevin Puopolo, founder and CEO. “For more than three decades, this company has been built on the belief that growing people is the foundation of our success and that we succeed together, not alone. Tim leads with integrity, accountability, and genuine care for this team. Passing the torch to him is both a personal joy and a professional certainty—he is ready, and he embodies the values that have defined CM&B from the start.”
“Stepping into the role of president is an incredible honor,” said Tim Puopolo. “CM&B was built on the belief that our people are our greatest strength and that how we work matters just as much as what we build. That philosophy has shaped me throughout my career. As we move forward, my commitment is to invest in our people, strengthen our partnerships, and continue delivering the level of excellence and care our clients expect. I’m proud to help carry this company into its next chapter.”
Tim joined CM&B in 2010 as an assistant project manager. Since then, he has advanced through CM&B in progressively senior roles, building a well-rounded foundation through hands-on experience across every major department, including field operations, estimating, project management, and sales.
As part of the leadership transition, Kevin Puopolo will step back from day-to-day leadership and continue to serve as founder and CEO in a limited capacity, joining the Legacy Advisory Board to help guide the company’s long-term vision and governance. Sean Fahy, who has served as president, will join him as a member of the Legacy Advisory Board.
