Peter Myers, UK Operations Director for AECOM’s water practice in Europe, comments:
“AECOM’s expertise in flood management is being increasingly recognised within the UK, and the appointment of Shirel is a key strategic appointment to further strengthen our team. She will be responsible for increasing market share within the central and local government sector. Shirel is the first of several significant appointments we are making in this sector to accommodate our growing workload.”
