SSH welcomes Mark O’Brien as the company’s new Group Commercial Director.

Mark has over 30 years’ experience in commercial management, operational management, programme management, and leadership. He has led teams in the UK, Europe, Asia and, for the last seven years, the Middle East.  

As a strategic thinker with an adaptive, collaborative style, Mark has a proven track record of leading businesses, developing people-focussed cultures, delivering strategic initiatives, and improving commercial awareness. He strongly believes in creating discipline and focus on key issues, introducing processes and control systems and, ultimately, driving better delivery and financial outcomes for both clients and the company.

Mark holds a B.Sc. degree in Quantity Surveying from Robert Gordon’s University in Scotland and is a member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.

Matthew Squires adds, “We are extremely pleased that Mark is joining our leadership team, bringing with him a wealth of regional experience together with subject-matter expertise, thought leadership and, most important, the right attitude and character to fit the SSH delivery ethos.”
