Gary Sweeney joins Mace from Turner & Townsend where he had briefly been interim director of its advanced manufacturing, industrial and logistics division since October.
Before that he was with ISG for a couple of years, latterly as director of innovation and growth within ISG’s Hyperscale business unit, focused on major programmes in the automotive, aerospace, datacentre, pharmaceutical, battery technology and logistics industries.
Mace said that his appointment marked an amalgamation of several key sectors under a single leadership structure.
As Mace Consult’s director for healthcare, life sciences and technology he will be seeking to build on Mace’s recent appointment as a delivery partner for the New Hospital Programme and to develop the company’s life sciences offering.
Gary Sweeney said: “Mace’s commitment to engaging clients early and working in partnership to help them shape their visions was a big reason behind my move. It’s a powerful proposition and one that resonates with me, having spent decades focusing on products and process housed within the infrastructure Mace delivers. By connecting these dots, we’re helping clients to think differently and unlock the outcomes that enable long term success.”
Andy Beard, interim managing director for Europe at Mace Consult, added: “Gary’s appointment and the alignment of our teams working across the healthcare, life sciences and technology sectors presents us with an exciting opportunity to drive the next level of growth across the region. We’ll still be bringing the usual service excellence, innovation and commitment to leaving a legacy, but with a sharper focus and greater emphasis on sharing knowledge and best-practice performance.”
