AECOM  (0.08 MB)

Company Announcement - AECOM, the global, fully integrated services firm, has appointed Carlos Pone as chief executive, Africa. Pone will be responsible for leading AECOM’s business across the African continent, and his appointment is a key part of the company’s growth strategy in the region.

Pone joins AECOM from ABB, a global leader in power and automation technologies, where he has held a number of positions, including CEO for Southern Africa and regional manager for Sub-Sahara Africa. Originally from Mozambique, he is currently ABB’s country managing director in the United Arab Emirates. Pone brings extensive experience working in the Middle East and Africa to AECOM. This expertise will help create opportunities for AECOM to deliver integrated infrastructure services across the region.
Steve Morriss, AECOM’s chief executive, Europe, Middle East, Africa (EMEA) and India, said: “The Africa region plays an increasingly important part of our business in AECOM. More and more global clients are exploring opportunities in the region, and the emerging and developed economies across Africa provide great opportunities for AECOM to positively impact lives and transform communities. Carlos’ track record of creating strong, sustainable and diverse teams across the continent will help take our business to the next level of success.”

Commenting on joining AECOM, Pone added: “I share the same values and passion for Africa as AECOM and look forward to implementing the company’s strategy and vision for the region, helping to take the business to a leading position in the continent.” Pone will join the company in August and will be based in Johannesburg.
