Consultant beefs up defence and energy teams

Turner & Townsend has made a raft of senior appointments to its business with new recruits arriving from several rivals including Bechtel and Mace Consult.

In June, the firm said former Sir Robert McAlpine executive board member Steve Hudson had joined T&T as director of infrastructure.

Now Chris Enoch has arrived from Bechtel, where he was recently global rail sector lead, to take on the role of national service director for programme management while Ray Riley and Mark England have also joined with a remit to focus on defence infrastructure.
