Fluor Corp. has named David E. Constable, a member of the Fluor board of directors, as CEO, effective Jan. 1, 2021. Constable succeeds Carlos Hernandez, who will retire as CEO and a member of the company’s board at the end of the year.
Constable is a versatile executive with significant international experience and a proven track record of driving growth and value creation across multiple industries. He brings 30 years of insight to Fluor’s business, strategy and operations, having held various leadership roles within the company from 1982 to 2011, before returning as a board member in 2019. From 2011 to 2016, Constable served as CEO of Sasol Ltd., where he executed a comprehensive change program and implemented a new operating model focused on enhancing growth across the organization.
“We are pleased to appoint David, a proven executive with a deep understanding of our operations and opportunities, as Fluor’s next CEO,” said Alan Boeckmann, executive chairman of the board. “Our board is confident David is the right person to shape and lead the company’s transformation strategy, which will enable us to achieve our full potential.”
Constable and the Fluor leadership team will hold a business update conference call with the investment community in mid-January to share details on the company’s transformation strategy.
“I am excited to rejoin such a great company and am honored to be leading Fluor during this important time in its history,” Constable said.
