AtkinsRéalis has appointed Ian Dyck as global market lead – water.
Dyck joins the firm from AECOM, where he led the Canadian water business for seven years. He began his career in engineering design before moving into senior business leadership roles at professional services firms Matrix Solutions and Worley Parsons.
Water is one of AtkinsRéalis’ core markets, with capabilities spanning strategic planning and advisory, design and engineering, programme and project management, and long-term asset performance and optimisation.
In his new role, Dyck will focus on extending the reach of these capabilities and building the partnerships and delivery models needed to support clients in delivering large-scale, complex programmes.
Kate Kenny, chief growth officer at AtkinsRéalis, said: “AtkinsRéalis has the multi-disciplinary expertise and global reach to help clients in rapidly growing markets navigate complex environments and effectively deliver essential infrastructure. Water is one of our most important growth areas, with strong momentum and increasing global demand.
“At a time when utilities and governments are investing to modernise ageing infrastructure, improve water quality, implement digital ways of working and strengthen resilience, Ian will bring these capabilities together in a way that supports delivery at scale and builds long-term relationships with our clients. Ian will ensure we are drawing on the full strength of our global water expertise as the sector continues to see significant levels of growth, investment and ambition.”
