James Iremonger and Robert Harker co-lead the team; the latter is a proficient project financer who is particularly knowledgeable of the traditional power and water space. Adam Haque has presided over a number of precedent-setting projects in the region, and is a go-to for utilities and hydrogen work, whereas Mona Hammadi is notably focused on solar builds.
