Clancy has strengthened its senior leadership at the civil engineering team with two new hires.

Former Morrison Water Services contracts manager Daniel Tonkin has joined to become operations director for Clancy’s work for South West Water.

He joins as Clancy gears up for a significant work programme after securing South West Water’s Capital Delivery Programme Tier 1 Delivery Partners framework.

The other senior newcomer, former Buckingham Group major projects director Simon Hyams, takes over as operations director at Clancy’s major infrastructure division.

This specialises in work on projects for HS2 and wider transport networks as well as on new water and energy pipelines.

Reporting to the executive team, he will work alongside Clancy’s business development and operations teams to support the long-term growth of its civil engineering and major infrastructure division.
