RPS appoints new Director to grow Midlands service profile
We're delighted to welcome Nicola Burley as Director within our UK Project Management Division.
We're delighted to welcome Nicola Burley as Director within our UK Project Management Division.
With previous leading roles in both client and consulting environments, Nicola joins RPS with nearly twenty years’ experience in the construction industry. Excited by the challenge to develop our existing project management team in Birmingham, Nicola has moved from multi-professional consultancy Pick Everard, after over four years as Project Management Director.
Nicola’s new role will see her expand the Birmingham team and raise our regional profile by generating growth in both the public and private sectors. This will involve strategic client development and progressing emerging sector opportunities.
Nicola comments: “The chance to develop both personally and professionally at RPS was too good of an opportunity to turn down. It’s great to be here and start what is an exciting challenge. I’m really looking forward to helping raise our business profile within the Birmingham market and wider Midlands region. There’s real potential to help clients develop in other disciplines and assist both the business and client growth in new sectors.”
During her time at Pick Everard, Nicola was instrumental in the opening of its Birmingham office in 2017, where she grew a variety of service offerings across project management, quantity surveying, health and safety, and sustainability.
Previous to that, Nicola was Director of Project Management at Sweett Group for five years, where she was Regional Office Lead.
Steve Kelly, RPS Operations Director – Project Management & Cost Consultancy, comments: “Nicola is a significant appointment and will be a real asset to our team. She will help support in all areas of growth, strategic development, and regional brand awareness of what we do and the range of services we provide.
“As a proven Director working across the sectors, Nicola has built excellent client relationships and will be vital in the delivery of our service offering across the region.”
