AECOM on Monday announced promotions for three of its executives, saying the moves were effective immediately.
Fred Werner is now AECOM’s president of major pursuits where he will focus on “large, complex bids,” AECOM said in a press release. Werner has about 40 years of industry experience, most recently as group president of AECOM’s design and consulting services in the Americas. He has held a number management posts within AECOM, including a stint as the head of its U.S. infrastructure group.
Werner’s latest post is a newly created position.
Steve Morriss was named to fill the post of group president, design and consulting services. Previously, Morriss was chief executive AECOM’s Europe, the Middle East, India, and Africa (EMIA) region. He joined AECOM in 2011 from Mouchel PLC.
Lara Poloni will succeed Morriss as chief executive for EMIA. Poloni had been chief executive for AECOM’s interests in Australia and New Zealand.
None of the promotions announced Monday will have a direct, regular role with AECOM’S environmental management contracts with the U.S. Energy Department nor its other nuclear-related businesses, a company spokesman said.
