Royal Haskoning

• IT Services and IT Consulting

• Scientist / Project Manager

  • Feb 2008 - Mar 2012

  Andy's time at Royal Haskoning was primarily spent managing a range of flood defence projects around the UK. These included the preparation of flood risk assessments, feasibility studies, project appraisal reports, catchment wide strategic reviews, post flood assessments, and the outline / detailed design of flood defences. Notable projects included the management of the Wigton Flood Alleviation Scheme, a 2 year project which incorporated all stages from feasibility, project appraisal, outline and detail design. Construction of the defence was completed in early 2012. Andy was also involved in during and post flood surveys undertaken throughout the September 2009 Cumbria floods. This involved working on site during the event, utilising my understanding of fluvial systems, processes, and hydrology to identify and assess the processes that led to flooding in particular areas. This information could then be used in the design of future flood defences. Skills used on a regular basis whilst in this role included; project management, hydrology (FEH), hydraulic modelling (Isis, HEC-RAS Tuflow), economic analysis, fluvial geomorphology, contaminated land, and topographic surveys among others.
