Mace Consult has appointed Louise Sunderland and Martyn Court as head of cities and places and London and head of mobility respectively.
Sunderland (pictured) joins from EY, where she recently held the role of partner in its government and infrastructure consultancy practice. Court joins the business from Arcadis where he was a partner. In his new role, he will be responsible for rail, highways, aviation and ports.
Andy Beard, managing director of Europe at Mace Consult, said: “Mace Consult is a strategic partner to clients delivering some of the world’s most high-profile infrastructure and public-sector capital programmes. The appointments of Louise and Martyn are representative of the business’s rapid growth trajectory and strong ambition in Europe as we continue to expand our headcount of people with specialisms in successfully delivering these major initiatives. Both leaders join Mace with a wealth of experience in driving strategic growth and building high-performing teams that bring value to people, places, clients and projects”.
Sunderland added: “The challenges facing our cities and urban centres as we redevelop and adapt to the effects of climate change are immense, and I am strongly motivated to bring about enduring positive change to people’s lives. By being outcomes focused we can maximise the benefit to people and communities, making places more sustainable and resilient for future use.”
Court said: “The transport sector represents a significant opportunity to Mace as organisations invest in improving connectivity to improve social mobility and stimulate economic growth. Mace already has a strong presence in this vital area, and I look forward to bringing my extensive experience in infrastructure to bear as we expand across the region.”
