Company veteran becomes national head of division

Currie & Brown has promoted company veteran Eryl Evans to national head of infrastructure, the latest staffing change aimed at bolstering the division.

The consultant has seen a 25% growth in the sector over the past year and the promotion of Evans comes after the appointment of a new senior director to the business earlier this month.

Ian Bayes, who joins from project controls consultancy LogiKal, is the third senior infrastructure hire this year, after the appointments of director Phil Iwobi and associate director David Hutchens in the spring.
