Group Announcement – Paul Sheffield
22 February 2017
Laing O’Rourke announces that Paul
Sheffield is stepping down from his role as Managing Director,
Engineering Enterprise. Paul joined the business in 2014 and indicated
then that his timeline was based on a relatively short horizon, having
just left his role as Chief Executive at
Kier Plc.
In the period with Laing O’Rourke, Paul has concentrated on our strategy
and value proposition and at the same time, he focussed his leadership
team on the legacy projects, which have now been completed in the UK,
and also on building a quality pipeline for the future.
The business plans to 2020 are now complete and our vision to 2025 is
well advanced and will be ratified in April/May this year.
Ray O’Rourke said: “Paul and I feel that now is an appropriate time for
him to step off and make way for others currently in the business with
longer horizons.
“I would like to personally thank Paul for his tireless efforts and
dedication over the past three years. His leadership has been
instrumental in ensuring the business is now on track to grow safely and
profitably in the coming years.”
Paul Sheffield said: “Laing O’Rourke’s client base, technical capability
and opportunity to excel across a broad range of major projects, puts
the business in a lead position within our industry. Delivering for
clients is at the core of the Laing O’Rourke business ethos. I know the
leadership teams in place across the business will continue to ensure
that clients’ commitments are delivered with certainty.”
