Now as part of the HanmiGlobal family, Walker Sime has recently added International, European and US capabilities strengthening our ability to serve clients on a global scale. This will add to our growing capacity to deliver exceptional results, positioning us as a key partner in shaping the future through transformative projects that drive success and innovation.

Jon’s appointment comes at a key time for the company as we set out to meet the challenges of scaling the business to achieve its ambitious growth plans. Under Jon’s leadership, we will focus on sustainable growth, nurturing talent, and maintaining the technical excellence that has earned our enviable reputation with our clients.

With over 20 years of industry experience, Jon is enthusiastic about the role Walker Sime can play in shaping the future of the UK’s Infrastructure and Real Estate markets. Speaking about his new role, Jon said:

“I’m incredibly proud to take on the role of Managing Director at Walker Sime. From the moment I joined, I recognised this was a business built on strong values, a fantastic culture, and a deep commitment to its people. The company has an exceptional reputation for technical excellence, and my priority is to build on that success while ensuring we continue to grow in a way that stays true to our values. That’s massively important, because this business has already demonstrated that our values are something people can get behind – and that will continue to help us attract and retain great talent.

This role is more than just a career move for me – it’s about leaving a legacy. I joined this industry because I wanted to make a difference, to be part of something that stands the test of time. Now, my focus is on ensuring Walker Sime remains a business that is not only successful today but is fit for the future. That means continuing to invest in our people, nurturing talent, and ensuring we remain a trusted and innovative partner for our clients.

The UK market is at a turning point, and we are well positioned to play a key role in the evolution. Our strength has always been in our people, our relationships, and our technical excellence. By staying focused on these principles, we can continue to thrive, grow, and make a real impact in the industry.”

Over the past four years, the UK group has more than doubled in size, reflecting the trust and confidence clients place in our expertise. Looking ahead, we are actively pursuing opportunities to expand into new services, sectors and regions, with a strategic focus on innovation, resilience and deepening our client partnerships.
