Q. How has your career at Turner and Townsend developed?

A. I joined Turner & Townsend in 1999 as a Commercial Manager – my first project was the Wellcome Trust headquarters in London. I was appointed in 2006 to head the firm's rail business, and we won the Crossrail programme management partner as part of Transcend.

Later, leading our UK infrastructure business, we became the sole provider of cost and commercial management, and project controls services for capital investment at Heathrow. In 2018, I became Managing Director of the UK Business and joined the Executive Board. I’m now Managing Director, leading the EMEA region.

Q. Which project are you most proud of being involved in at Turner & Townsend?

A. I’m proud to be associated with Crossrail – one of the most ambitious and extensive infrastructure projects ever undertaken in Europe.

As with all major programmes, Crossrail was complex to initiate and deliver into use, bringing over 1.5 million passengers within 45 minutes of central London. Crossrail is a fantastic accomplishment for London in the 21st century and for our industry.

Q. How do you see the business developing over the next five years?

A. We’ve set bold targets for the next five years, but I think our ambition as a business remains unchanged.

As a partnership, we hope to continue to be a magnet for talent in our industry, with the opportunity to work on outstanding global programmes, contributing to the communities where we operate, and advising our clients on setting up for success – including those in an increasingly digital environment.

We have set a bold new vision for 2030, in which we are targeting to double the business, accelerating growth in our key market segments; bringing integrated solutions to our customers, convening the industry's best talent with a passion for transformation and an AI-ready mindset.
