Philippa Spence, UK Managing Director, Ramboll

“The market has been challenging for the last few years, but we have looked after each other and worked hard – so to see that recognised is incredibly satisfying, it’s a real boost for the team. These awards allow us the opportunity to take stock – and celebrate.”

Richard Risdon, Managing Director for UK and Europe, Mott MacDonald

“We're honoured to win this award which is testament to our commitment to integrate inclusion into every aspect of our industry. We're delighted that our progress has received prominent recognition this year and remain focused on creating a supportive and inclusive environment for all our colleagues”.

 

Paul Matthews, Regional Director, AECOM

 “Leith Connections is a great example of the wide-ranging benefits a collaborative approach to delivery can bring to communities. Starting out as a new segregated cycle route, our multidisciplinary team worked with City of Edinburgh Council to broaden its scope, creating a low traffic neighbourhood, improved accessibility, new public realm, and sustainable urban drainage features that transform the area. We’re delighted to receive the ACE Best Transport Project Award, which recognises the impact of our cross-discipline and community-led approach.”
