Carnell Appoint Business Director

Carnell are delighted to announce the appointment of Adrian Oulds as their new Business Director.

Ady joined the team today from National Highways, where he most recently held the position of Interim Regional Director for the Midlands. He is a chartered civil engineer with more than three decades of industry experience spanning both the public and private sector. During this time, he has worked for organisations such as Warwickshire County Council, Atkins, CH2M and National Highways, developing a wealth of knowledge in the design, commercial and delivery aspects of highway maintenance.

The relationships he has built over the years, particularly in the midlands, where he led the roll out of the first Asset Delivery contract, will be key to helping us mobilise the new Scheme Delivery Framework (SDF) contracts and capitalising on other new business opportunities around the country.

Adrian said: “I have worked with Carnell for many years and have admired their dedication and willingness to support the client organisations they work for. I am a firm believer that people make our success and I am relishing the opportunity to work alongside a great team at Carnell.”

Commenting on the appointment, Andrew Sharp, Managing Director said: “I’ve known Ady for many years. He brings with him an understanding of what National Highways want from their delivery partners and a passion for developing collaborative relationships to ensure the safe, customer friendly delivery of our projects, with a focus on continual improvement, sustainability and efficiency via innovative working methods. He brings award winning performance to strengthen the team and will be a great addition to our leadership team as we navigate the new and exciting times ahead for the business.”
