DPR Construction announced this week it appointed Angela Floyd as CFO, effective Jan. 1. The Redwood City, California-based general contractor and construction manager specializes in life sciences, healthcare, higher education and commercial markets. 

Previously, Floyd held business roles at Balfour Beatty Construction, including vice president of business improvement and director. Floyd joined DPR in 2017 and has worked closely with Michele Leiva, who has served as DPR's CFO since 2010 and plans to retire this quarter, according to the release. 

Floyd, who is based in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, has nearly two decades of experience in providing oversight of financial services, financial reporting and analysis, tax, treasury and internal audit functions, according to the release.

"As an industry leader, we have an obligation to do things well and to do them right, because we are in a position to influence not only the industry but also purpose-driven organizations," said Floyd in the release. "We've already seen the difference we can make through events like Construction Inclusion Week, and our ongoing commitment to environmental health and safety, mental wellness, and taking care of people."

DPR said Floyd will work in her new role, to capitalize on the “opportunities that come with being a forward-thinking, global organization in concert with the development and implementation of best-in-class enterprise processes, metrics and financial controls that continuously help to improve service, quality and performance.”
