Skanska has coaxed National Highways' director of enhancements, Dean Sporn, to join its infrastructure business.
Mr Sporn will be leaving National Highways after eight years in the major projects directorate, joining Skanska in the new year as operations director.
A civil engineer with 30 years’ experience, Mr Sporn also spent seven years as general manager of CPB Contractors before his position with National Highways.
Andrew English, executive vice president at Skanska UK, said: ‘Dean will bring extensive infrastructure experience to Skanska, from the UK and overseas, and I very much look forward to welcoming him to the team.
‘With his strong commitment to safety, quality and values-led approach, Dean will be an excellent addition to our highly experienced Infrastructure business.’
Mr Sporn added: ‘Skanska is forward-thinking, with a people-led culture driving performance. Its commitment to values, behaviours and doing business in the right way is widely recognised in the industry.
‘While I highly value my eight years with National Highways, I’m now looking forward to joining Skanska at what is an exciting time for the business.’
