NEW YORK — With tremendous momentum for infrastructure development across New York Metro and New England, WSP in the U.S., one of the world’s leading professional services firms, welcomes two respected industry leaders as regional executives to enhance continued growth.
Jack Schiavone now serves as New England regional executive. He previously led WSP Global’s industrial sector. He is based in Rhode Island.
Tom Scerbo, AIA, arrives at WSP with more than 25 years of architecture and infrastructure experience and now serves as New York Metro regional executive. He is based in New York.

Schiavone and Scerbo lead growth, strategy deployment, client engagement, performance management and cross-collaboration across WSP business lines and sectors in their respective regions.
