Tim Danson joins Pick Everard as Director of Sustainability and Energy

2 Oct 2023

Pick Everard has announced the appointment of Tim Danson as new director of sustainability and energy, taking the firm’s total of directors within the discipline to three.

In his new role, Tim will help continue pushing forward the firm’s commitment to ‘deliver better together’ by further driving practical sustainability action in industry. Joining Pick Everard’s team in Bristol, he brings with him more than 23 years of experience, including almost 17 years at WSP.

Tim has been brought in to bolster Pick Everard’s capabilities in a number of key areas, including an enhanced portfolio of infrastructure projects to complement the existing focus on buildings. He will also be instrumental in enhancing the growing range of corporate and other sustainability advisory services available to clients.

Speaking about his appointment, Tim said: “Making this move was a huge decision for me, but Pick Everard’s people, culture and ethos, along with the opportunity to refresh my career in an organisation seeking to evolve, diversify and grow, was one I really couldn’t pass up.

"I'm here to augment our vast experience in building lifecycle design, net zero and thermal modelling, by strengthening our focus onto topics such as the circular economy and climate resilience and adaptation - but I'm aware that I can't do this alone. To 'deliver better together', we’ll need to continue to be agile, bring together our expertise across the company, and identify new resources. I've already forged excellent relationships with many key personnel, to ensure we're on the right path to do this.

"In all these ventures, I’m bringing my passion for building relationships, delivering practical sustainability solutions, and sharing project successes. And being a part of the vibrant design studio in the Generator Building in Bristol is just an additional bonus.”

Jose Hernandez, director and head of sustainability and energy at Pick Everard, said: "We’re delighted to have Tim join Pick Everard and our team. His extensive experience and innovative approaches to sustainability and energy are invaluable assets to our team.

“Tim’s passion and commitment align perfectly with our vision, and I am confident that his contributions will significantly propel us forward and faster in our sustainability initiatives. We are both eager to collaborate and create impactful, positive change in the industry together."
