Part of the RSK Group of companies, the move underscores Binnies’ commitment to enhancing its leadership team and strengthening its position in the industry.

Until now Matt Clegg has led the environmental consultancy team and overseen Binnies’ nature-based design & build business Solutions By Nature.

He will also join the Binnies UK leadership team, using his strategic thinking to enhance the growth trajectory Binnies is already achieving.

The appointment comes at a pivotal point in the organisation’s history as Binnies shapes itself to meet the demands of the climate crisis and support its clients in meeting their business outcomes to do the same.

“I am thrilled to take on the role of Flood Coast and Environment Director at such an important point in Binnies’ development and growth. I am excited by the huge potential that we have to build on the foundations of our technical excellence in our FCE teams and do more for our clients and the communities that we touch in the flood management, environment and infrastructure sectors. I am looking forward to harnessing the amazing array of talent and specialist services that we have in Binnies to deliver solutions for climate adaptation and resilience, and drive nature recovery in the UK.”
