LOS ANGELES, CA — Skanska announces leadership shifts in its USA Civil operations’ West Coast executive team. Mike Aparicio will be stepping aside from his role as Executive Vice President (EVP) of the West Coast region and will take on the role of Senior Vice President (SVP) of Operations as he transitions toward future retirement. James Bailey will move into the role of EVP, and Ryan Clayton will be promoted to Senior Vice President, General Manager. Their extensive industry experience and work at Skanska will allow them to enter their new leadership roles. The changes will be effective August 7.

“It is with a blend of emotions that I share that Mike Aparicio will be transitioning toward retirement,” said Don Fusco, President and CEO of Skanska USA’s Civil operations. “Mike has been a force in the construction industry and a huge asset to our team over the last 15 years. Throughout his career, Mike has built an incredible team that will lead us forward into the next chapter, and I appreciate the opportunity to partner with him on this transition.”

In the SVP role that will carry into 2024, Aparicio will help facilitate a transition focused on the strategic plan and specialized assignments.

Aparicio joined Skanska in 2008, after working in the California construction industry for decades. Throughout his career, Aparicio has delivered some of the most significant infrastructure developments, including the Expo 2 to Santa Monica that carries Angelenos to the beach, the Westside Purple Line Extension to Beverly Hills, the Regional Connector Transit Project in Downtown Los Angeles, and the Sixth Street Viaduct in Los Angeles.

Bailey will be appointed to the role of Executive Vice President for the West Coast region after serving as Senior Vice President, General Manager. Bailey joined Skanska in 2009 and has successfully led teams in delivering outperforming projects, including the I-15 Express Lanes in Riverside, State Route 60 in the Badlands, and Mid Coast Corridor in San Diego. In his new role, he will be responsible for the overall operations, as well as the long-term strategic planning to ensure the region’s success.
