BENTONVILLE, Ark., Sept. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- HFA Architecture + Engineering proudly welcomes Nick Wille as the firm's new Chief Financial Officer (CFO). With deep experience in the AEC industry and a strong belief in the power of employee ownership, Wille brings both expertise and perspective to HFA's senior leadership team.

"Nick possesses the exact experience we need to support our growth while staying true to our people-powered culture," said HFA CEO Dave Wilgus, AIA, NCARB. "He brings financial stewardship and a collaborative spirit that align perfectly with who we are as an employee-owned company."

Wille's career has been defined by cultivating financial leadership through hands-on experience, building teams that thrive on collaboration, transparency, and accountability, while aligning financial planning with business strategy to drive sustainable growth. Wille's background spans strategic planning and mentoring high-performing teams, giving him a holistic view of how finance can enable opportunity rather than limit it.
