John F. Shea Professional Roofing Contractor
Victor Szala, Senior Project Manager at John F. Shea

Victor Szala

Senior Project Manager

As the project manager, Victor Szala is the primary point of contact between the client and the team, which gives him the “opportunity to meet new people every other day.” Victor, who has served as senior project manager with John F. Shea for over a decade now, also enjoys the “freedom of movement” the position provides.

“There are good days, and crazy days,”he laughs. But one thing keeps him coming back to see what the next day brings. “We have a couple of great owners,” he explains, who offer the freedom and the resources to use your own judgment to get the job done right. The owners also uphold John F. Shea’s greatest asset. “Reputation. That’s what keeps us going,” says Victor. “We have great reputations with most of the biggest contractors in Boston.”

Victor has watched John F. Shea grow, and enjoyed the opportunity to grow with them. “I started as an estimator,” he recalls, then managed the service department. Today, when not coordinating projects and overseeing jobs, the Seekonk, MA resident enjoys working around the house and making time for golf.

Due to the variety of projects he oversees, Victor never gets bored. “Every job we do is something different,” Victor explains. “Even being at this for 30 years, I’m finding new things every week. I’m still learning.”
