About Simon Bluestone

I am a Program Leader and Client Service Manager with more than 35 years of experience delivering large scale, multi-disciplinary capital projects and programs for clients across sectors and geographies. My expertise is in delivering solutions throughout the project lifecycle, from acquisition due diligence, to integration, planning, design, construction, and operational excellence. I\'ve been delivering environmental, health & safety, water, energy and built environment solutions to private and governmental clients since 1985. I\'ve held progressive technical, project management, business development and operational leadership positions and am passionate about leading and delivering services that make a positive impact in our communities. I spent almost a decade practicing in Europe, Africa the Middle East and India, in project delivery, regional client service management and then corporate strategy and operational leadership functions, before repatriating to the US in 2005 to lead a geographic operation in the Western US. I am committed to growing our professional services business by delivering outcomes for our clients that make them successful. I believe in building partnerships and alliances across sectors to build a sustainable, equitable and successful future.
