DESIGN consultancy EC Harris, part of Arcadis UK, has appointed associate partner James Crawley to its Leeds office.
He joins from Calderdale Council and has previously worked at Muse Developments and M&G Real Estate.
Mr Crawley said: “I had been looking for a company with the ambition and potential to expand and develop in line with the massive growth prospects we are seeing across the region. I was amazed by the breadth of work and expertise within EC Harris and the Arcadis Group.
Having worked client side for a number of years it was clear to me that there are very few consultants who could match EC Harris in terms of what we offer.
James Redmayne, principal partner for EC Harris in Leeds, added: “As an addition to the Leeds office James is the perfect fit.
“With his expertise and breadth of experience in both the public and private sector he can bring a regional focus on both property and infrastructure development for a wide range of our clients in the region.”
