Simon Morris is taking on the role of growth lead at WSP's new sustainability advisory business.
Mr Morris has spent the last 18 years working with Ricardo Energy and Environment, with seven of those years being ‘immersed in the aviation sector'.
He started with the company as a senior technical consultant in 2008, before moving on to the position of principal consultant and then business development manager.
His most recent role at the company was head of local energy systems.
Sharing his new role on LinkedIn, Mr Morris said: ‘What excites me most is not the title but the opportunity to work across an incredible range of expertise.
'Bringing together sustainability strategists, policy specialists, economists, scientists, engineers and technical experts allows us to support clients across the whole value chain, from shaping strategy through to implementation and delivery.
‘I'm excited to broaden my horizons and deepen my expertise in the data centre sector, where sustainability is increasingly central to future growth and performance.
‘The challenges facing our clients are becoming more interconnected and complex. The role of the consultant in sustainability continues to evolve. Being part of a team with the scale, expertise and ambition to help tackle those challenges is something I'm genuinely excited about.'
