Rabagliati has been with the company for more than two decades, and was previously CFO at Skanska Asset Management. In his new role, he “will oversee the administration, financial and auditing operations of USA Commercial Development to ensure the company’s strong balance sheet is maintained and well positioned for market readiness,” according to a Skanska statement.

“As CFO, I will use my experience and background to ensure the company’s financial solid outcome is maintained and is well positioned for continuous project planning and development, while implementing effective financial oversight,” Rabagliati told Commercial Observer. 

“In this new role, I will have the opportunity to continue my professional career at Skanska and play an integral part in the U.S. Commercial Development high-performance team. This business unit faces an extraordinarily profitable growing future, and I want to be part of it,” he added.

He is also charged with instituting financial strategies for both project planning and development to improve the company’s business model of self-financing select developments, per the statement.
