Civil Engineer Tapio Virta has been appointed as the Chief Operating Officer of the Built Environment business unit for Southern Finland.

In his position, Tapio Virta will be responsible for new customer acquisition, customer relations and project sales in his own area, as well as managing new customer acquisitions and their projects.

Fimpec aims for significant growth in the Built Environment business over the next few years and is investing in growth through regional operations.

Tapio brings to this environment his strong experience and market knowledge of over 30 years in both the construction and developer consulting business. He is also very well known as an active person and project developer in the industry.

“I am excited to join the Fimpec team, which has strong expertise in managing large projects using joint ventures as well as in international operations. I believe that we will be able to offer our customers added value in our future projects by combining Fimpec’s know-how with my own expertise in building construction,” says Tapio.

In his position, Tapio reports to Mikko Turunen, Business Director, Built Environment / Managing Director, Fimpec PMO Ltd. According to Mikko, Tapio’s extensive experience significantly strengthens Fimpec’s recognition of the built environment and construction and supports determined growth.

“Tapio’s solid experience in the building construction industry, combined with Fimpec’s project management and construction experience in the implementation of industrial projects, complement each other well. In addition, his networking and market recognition strengthen Fimpec’s operations as a developer of local built environment projects and as a responsible leader of their implementation.”
