MEET THE CHAIR

Robert Scancella, P.E., M.ASCE

Mr. Scancella joined KSE in October 2015, and is working in the Construction Services Department, opening new possibilities for our Construction Management and Construction Inspection business. He brings with him 41+ years of experience in the design and construction of highways, roadways, and bridges, having served in the role of Project Manager, Resident Engineer, and Project Engineer for a wide variety of projects. He spent nearly 20 years of his career with the New Jersey Department of Transportation. During his time with NJDOT he was a Resident Engineer, Project Engineer, Materials Structural Engineer, and Project Manager. He was selected as Project Manager for the first design-build project undertaken by the NJDOT. He is a graduate of the Citadel in 1977.

Mr. Scancella believes in Transportation, Construction Inspection, Design-Build and in service. Mr. Scancella best puts it by saying, “I give of my time and talent to the organizations I belong to because I believe in them and the devotion of them towards the Transportation and Construction Engineer. When you believe in something you find the required time, and teaching others is invigorating - not a hassle.”
