NECC Welcomes Cagen Williams as New CEO

On July 10, 2025, Northeast Contracting Company, LLC (NECC), a prominent commercial roofing contractor based in Virginia, announced the appointment of Cagen Williams as its new Chief Executive Officer. Williams brings a wealth of experience in finance and operational strategy, positioning him as a strategic leader capable of navigating the company through its next phase of growth.

Williams’ appointment comes in the wake of significant investment from RCap Equity Partners and Monroe Capital LLC made in 2024, which underscores NECC's commitment to expanding its services and geographical presence. Under his guidance, NECC aims to enhance its service delivery and capitalize on the skills of its workforce while also focusing on expanding into new markets within the Mid-Atlantic region and beyond.

The new CEO articulately stated, "NECC is a company with deep roots, trusted relationships, and a reputation for performance in the field. We are focused on raising the standard for field responsiveness, scaling our operations, and ensuring reliable service delivery for our institutional clients." Williams emphasized that the forthcoming chapter at NECC revolves around action, expertise, and broader impact—a philosophy that aligns with the company’s aim to establish itself as a high-performance commercial roofing platform.

Before joining NECC, Williams honed his leadership skills at Panhandle Power Solutions in Florida, where he ascended from Director of Operations in 2009 to President and CEO. His tenure saw significant transformations within the company, including guiding it through an acquisition in 2019 while also diversifying its federal contracting capabilities into the clean energy sector. Williams holds an MBA from New York University's Stern School of Business, which further complements his proven track record in transforming industrial service businesses and establishing operational efficiencies.

Matthew Raymon, Partner at RCap, expressed confidence in Williams’ leadership: "Cagen is a high-integrity, high-performance leader. He brings a forward-thinking, execution-focused mindset to his role as CEO. We're confident he will position NECC as a best-in-class partner to asset managers and operators of essential infrastructure across the full building envelope."

Since its founding in 1994 as a family-owned business, NECC has catered to institutional, educational, and mission-critical facilities, providing expert roofing systems and comprehensive building envelope solutions. As the company moves forward under Williams’ direction, it is set to continue investing in its workforce and operational processes, ensuring it meets the growing demands of its clients while upholding NECC's legacy of quality.

As NECC adapts to the evolving market, the company looks forward to scaling its geographical reach and service depth, setting new benchmarks for excellence in commercial roofing and building envelope solutions.
