Amey has announced the appointment of Ian Tyler from January 2018 as Non-Executive Chairman of the Amey Board.
He currently sits on the board of four organisations including Bovis Homes and BAE systems and previously held the position of Chief Executive at Balfour Beatty. He replaces Sir Richard Mottram, who has served as Chairman since 2008.
Commenting on the appointment, Andy Milner, Amey Chief Executive, said:
“We are really pleased that Ian is joining the Board of Amey as non-exec Chairman. Ian is a very well qualified and experienced executive and non-executive, who brings a wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm for the sectors in which we operate. On behalf of the Amey board, I would like to thank Sir Richard Mottram for his many years of commitment and service to Amey.”
Ian Tyler said:
“Following on from a difficult period for the sector, it is clear that the Amey business has navigated this situation well and this is an exciting time to be joining. I look forward to working with the leadership team to realise the Amey ambition of creating better places for people to live, work and travel.”
During his time at the helm of the FTSE 250 Group, the former Chief Executive transformed Balfour Beatty from a company focused solely on construction into a multinational providing infrastructure and commercial services, including engineering, design, construction, and maintenance.
With a turnover of £2.2bn, Amey employs 19,000 people internationally with a focus on the UK, but with businesses in Australia and America.
Amey is owned by Ferrovial, a member of Spain’s blue-chip IBEX 35 index and one of the world’s leading infrastructure management and investment companies. Ferrovial has more than 96,000 employees and a presence in over 15 countries. Amey is part of Ferrovial’s Services division.
