Beca has appointed David Papps to the Beca Group Ltd (BGL) board, effective from October 23, 2020. David’s appointment will temporarily increase the size of the BGL board from seven to eight directors before returning to seven directors on March 31, 2021.

David Carter, Beca’s executive chair is particularly pleased to have Papps join the board, having worked closely with him on multiple projects during the early stages of his career. Carter said, “David’s range of technical, project and management roles across Beca’s New Zealand, Singapore and Australian businesses have helped shape our business.

“In addition to his technical expertise, David brings to the board an inquiring and considered mind as well an in-depth knowledge of Beca’s Australian business. This appointment is just another step in the substantial contributions he has already made to our Beca group.”

Papps is a chartered professional engineer with 25 years’ experience in water and coastal engineering. After graduating with a Masters of Applied Science (Coastal Engineering) from the University of British Colombia and a PhD (Civil Engineering) from the University of Canterbury, he worked briefly for the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research before joining Beca in 1995.

His particular areas of specialist expertise include hydraulic and coastal management plus major project leadership, on projects ranging from catchment studies to marine outfalls to advanced water treatment facilities.
