JE Dunn Construction is excited to announce Chris Chelette’s return to the organization after serving as Senior Vice President of Facilities Services at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta for nine years. Prior to this work, Chris spent 17 years at JE Dunn, growing through the organization within the healthcare business unit. In his new role as Senior Vice President – Healthcare, Chris will be responsible for providing strategic leadership and operational oversight for healthcare projects in the southeast.

During his time with JE Dunn, he provided direct management and executive oversight on projects across the country in both the non-profit and for-profit healthcare sectors, including several large hospital systems in the Charlotte and Raleigh areas. Chris joined Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta in 2016, where he led the master planning, design, and construction of the more than $2 billion North Druid Hills campus, which included the Center for Advanced Pediatrics, the Support Center for non-clinical offices and training, and Arthur M. Blank Hospital, a 2-million square foot 446-bed replacement hospital that opened last year.

“We couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome Chris back to the JE Dunn family,” said Jeff Fuller, President of Healthcare at JE Dunn. “His visionary leadership and depth of experience in healthcare have left a lasting mark. Chris’s return not only brings his national perspective and proven track record back to our team but also reflects JE Dunn’s continued investment in leading the future of healthcare construction.”
