He takes over the role from David Taylor, who has chosen to step down from the executive board after 10 years as Costain's group commercial director. David will remain in the business, using his extensive experience to provide commercial support for specific projects.

Paul will help ensure our business strategy remains firmly aligned with the needs of our customers in the UK's critical infrastructure sectors."
