Consultant engineering partnership Tony Gee has announced Alasdair Fowler is to take up the new post of CEO as part of changes to the group’s leadership structure - effective from the beginning of 2025.

He will also act as Tony Gee’s UK managing director after almost 14 years with the company, most recently as executive director.

Executive managing director Chris Young will take up a new position as chair of Tony Gee’s executive board, overseeing the group’s strategy.

Tony Gee expects its UK operations to remain the largest part of the business.

The company says the group’s continued growth means a more appropriate business structure is necessary to ensure it remains agile and takes full advantage of global opportunities with continued integration and collaboration between all the offices around the world.

Alasdair Fowler said: “The change at Tony Gee will be good for our clients and for our very talented and dedicated team. It will help to ensure Tony Gee continues to innovate and provide sustainable and market leading consultant engineering services across all the sectors we operate in.”

Chris Young added: “These changes will drive the continued success and growth of Tony Gee across all disciplines and locations. It’s an exciting time for everyone here, but although we are becoming a bigger player, we will maintain our distinctive culture and values wherever we operate around the world.”

The Tony Gee Group celebrates its 50th anniversary this year. The business is technically led and works across both the private and public sectors in transport, energy, industry and education.
