New Haven-based Hoffmann Architects + Engineers on Thursday named two new co-presidents to lead the firm.
Craig A. Hargrove and Avi A. Kamrat will take over the top leadership posts of the firm, which specializes in the rehabilitation of building exteriors.
They will replace outgoing President Russell M. Sanders, who joined the firm in 1978, and will stay on as president emeritus and serve as senior advisor until his planned retirement later this year.
Hargrove has served as director of architecture and manager of the firm’s New York City office for more than 20 years, the firm said.
“In that time, he oversaw the firm’s busiest location and expanded Hoffmann’s reputation and influence throughout the city and beyond,” the company said.
Kamrat has served for more than 20 years as the firm’s director of administration and chief financial officer.
“Kamrat’s agile leadership enabled the firm not just to weather the pandemic, but thrive, rapidly adjusting workforce and financial models to retain and elevate talent and anticipate evolving client needs,” Hoffmann said.
John J. Hoffmann, company founder, will continue in his role as executive chairman and plans to retire after seeing the firm to its 50th anniversary in 2027, the company said.
