Sevee & Maher Engineers has a new leadership team, following the promotions of Erik Clapp to president and Daniel Diffin to vice president.
Co-founder Peter Maher is stepping back from the role of president at the firm and is now its chief financial officer. He and fellow engineer John Sevee, now retired, started the business in 1985.
Clapp and Diffin are principals of the Cumberland-based firm, which provides consulting services in civil engineering, environmental compliance, solid waste engineering, site investigation and remediation, geotechnical engineering and water resources.
Clapp has been a member of Sevee & Maher’s senior management team for nearly 10 years and heads the firm’s site investigation and remediation sector. He is a certified geologist with close to 30 years of expertise in characterization and remediation of contaminated soil, groundwater, and building materials, and specializes in hydrogeology, geochemistry, sediment transport, and geotechnical issues.
With Clapp at the helm, Sevee & Maher’s site investigation and remediation sector has had significant growth in recent years to lead the company in annual revenue. Clapp is also a director of the Environmental & Energy Council of Maine.
Diffin joined Sevee & Maher in 2012 to lead the firm’s civil engineering group and was promoted to principal in 2016. He is a licensed professional engineer with experience on a wide variety of civil engineering design and construction management projects for private and public sector clients. Diffin has been an active member of Sevee & Maher’s management team and key in the company’s strategic planning.
Under Diffin’s lead, Sevee & Maher’s civil engineering sector revenue has quadrupled since 2016. Diffin is on the board of the American Council of Engineering Companies of Maine.
Maher said Clapp and Diffin “have proven themselves to be leaders who will continue to guide Sevee & Maher Engineers to new heights.”
“I’m confident that they will do a great job, the company’s in excellent hands,” he said, adding that the leadership changes are part of Sevee & Maher’s long-range plan “to continue providing our clients with the high quality of services they’ve come to rely on.”
