Contractor Costain has appointed Mark Rogerson, former director at service efficiency firm Serco, as its chief development officer.

Rogerson will be responsible for developing and negotiating long term contracts with customers and developing partnership opportunities to grow the business.

Andrew Wyllie, Costain chief executive, said: “Our target customers are spending billions of pounds per annum on capital, operations and maintenance contracts. Those same customers are expecting suppliers to provide broad and bespoke solutions to their specific requirements by delivering a service across engineering consultancy, construction and operations and maintenance.

“We want to be the first choice for those customers and Mark, with his considerable experience and success in this field, will bring additional expertise and leadership which can only benefit the company in the future.” 

Rogerson was previously in charge of Serco’s operational efficiency in his role as director.
