Local Builder Focuses on Enhancing Services for Collaborative Delivery Projects
McCarthy Building Companies Inc. (McCarthy), one of the nation’s oldest and largest privately held construction firms, has hired building industry veteran Jason Fink, PE as Director of Design Integration for its Las Vegas office. Fink’s leading expertise in design and structural engineering, combined with a strong local reputation, positions the company at the forefront of design-build, which has become the emerging trend for project delivery in the Southern Nevada market.
“Jason has a well-earned and longstanding reputation of industry expertise that will translate to added value for our clients on both design-build and other collaborative project deliveries,” said Ross Edwards, senior vice president, McCarthy. “Jason’s local and technical knowledge is impressive, and his joining McCarthy enhances our ability to advocate for clients during any phase of a project.”
As Director of Design Integration, Fink brings his unique perspective and two decades of experience in structural engineering to support McCarthy’s diverse portfolio of public and private projects. He will work in tandem with the company’s growing design phase services team under the leadership of Mark Mohning, Vice President of Design Integration.
Fink, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee obtained a degree in structural engineering. During his academic journey, a casual encounter while he was pursuing his master’s led to a pivotal moment – an on-the-spot offer of employment from Lochsa Engineering, a decision that would shape his professional trajectory over the next two decades.
His inherent curiosity and early exposure to the construction industry laid the groundwork for a career driven by passion and proficiency. While with Lochsa Engineering, Fink has proven his leadership skills and design-build knowledge through numerous properties on the iconic Strip to international ventures in United Arab Emirates. Noteworthy achievements include the structural design for Palms Place in Las Vegas and Delta Downs in Louisiana, which remained intact after a natural disaster, a testament to his expertise and adaptability in challenging environments.
“I see the entire industry shifting towards more design-build projects. Having worked alongside many McCarthy partners on past projects, I came to understand the strength of the company and its prominent reputation as a local community builder. I’m looking forward to bringing my experience in design and engineering to this dynamic team,” said Fink.
Fink’s expertise extends beyond technical proficiency to strategic foresight. Embracing the evolution of the industry towards design-build methodologies, Fink is looking forward to leveraging his skills to deliver cost-effective solutions and align project goals with client expectations. His collaborative approach and track record of success positions him as a driving force for delivering an exceptional client experience.
