LOS ANGELES—AECOM‘s board of directors has named CEO Michael Burke chairman of the board. Burke succeeds John M. Dionisio, a 43-year veteran of the company, who is retiring. The appointment also comes on the heels of Burke’s recent to promotion to CEO in March of last year.

“Personally, I’m very grateful to our board of directors for their continuing leadership and the trust they are placing in me,” Burke tells GlobeSt.com. “Since becoming CEO in March 2014, our focus as a company has been to execute against AECOM’s vision to be the premier fully integrated infrastructure firm in the world, and we’re well on our way.” The firm’s latest project—a $144-million mixed-use complex, which it is developing in partnership with Mack Urban and Capri Capital Partners—broke ground this week.
