Appointment part of move to grow the function in the capital

Ridge has appointed a new partner for project and programme delivery.

The firm said Giles Heather has been tasked to grow its team in London, handling programme leadership, project controls, project management and portfolio management for clients across the capital.

The appointment comes as the consultant moves to grow its capabilities in the programme delivery of complex projects. Last year it acquired project management specialist Adept Management.
