Collett joins from consultant Jacobs where he worked for more than 20 years – most recently as Head of Local Government Services – Transportation.

Last year nmcn’s Infrastructure Managing Director Vip Gandhi also joined the firm from Jacobs after more than 20 years at the consultant.

Collett said: “I am very much looking forward to working with my new colleagues at nmcn to deliver quality projects for our customers and stakeholders whilst continuing to build on our sustainability and socially responsible focus.

“I believe that digital and lean construction are central to the growth of the construction sector and will be looking at optimising our potential in these areas.”

Gandhi said; “I am delighted to welcome Jon to nmcn – his comprehensive sector experience will help to ensure we continue to be at the forefront of offering to our customers.”
