WSP rejig sees new boss at buildings business with Kamran Moazami handed executive design brief

WSP has appointed Andy Temple as executive managing director for its Property and Buildings business in the UK & Ireland taking over from Kamran Moazami.

Temple was previously senior operation director at the business and his switch comes after Moazami was given a new role as executive design principal.

Moazami, who has been eight years in the post, has worked on some of the capital’s best-known buildings including the Shard, built by Mace, and 22 Bishopsgate and One Blackfriars, both of which were built by Multiplex.

Iranian-born Moazami has been at WSP since the mid-1980s and has worked for WSP in the UK since the late 1990s.

In a statement, WSP said: “His leadership has been instrumental in strengthening WSP’s capabilities and delivering high-profile, complex projects across the UK and internationally.”

Paul Reilly, president and managing director for WSP UK & Ireland, said: “Kamran has done a fantastic job building our world-renowned Property and Buildings team. As an already accomplished leader, I am confident Andy will build on [his] strong foundations.”
