Engineering consultancy Meinhardt (UK) recently strengthened its building services (MEP) team and newly created infrastructure team with two senior hires and two promotions.

The business appointed Dean Coughlan as MEP operations director and Liam Clark as MEP technical director, as well as promoting Chris Grubb to regional director and Sam Courtney to associate director.
Coughlan brings more than 15 years’ experience across residential and commercial sectors, from concept to handover. He will lead the building services team in collaboration with board directors Mark Bryan and Martin Taylor.
He said: “This is a dynamic time for the market as client requirements are ever-evolving, particularly with the introduction of the Building Safety Act, which is exciting from a design-led engineering perspective.”
Clark joins Meinhardt with 26 years’ experience in the electrotechnical and consulting engineering sectors. He worked on projects across London and the South East, covering residential, commercial, heritage and historic, healthcare, and ecclesiastical sectors.
He said: “I’m looking forward to applying the knowledge and skills I’ve built over my career, to strengthen and improve our offering and ensure projects continue to be delivered efficiently, innovatively, and successfully.”
With 30 years’ experience and seven spent at Meinhardt, Grubb will lead the newly created infrastructure team to deliver national and international projects across various sectors.
Courtney joined Meinhardt 18 months ago as senior associate and has experience across the commercial sector, including CAT A and B fitouts, building refurbishment, and new builds.
Meinhardt board director Mark Bryan said: “Both promotions are truly well deserved. Chris, for his continued work ethic across all Meinhardt consulting engineering disciplines, while Sam has made excellent headways within our commercial sector offering.
“On behalf of the board directors, we look forward to seeing the team work on our diverse portfolio of individual buildings right the way through to huge international master plans.”
