EmployersSenior hiring and moves
AECOM
2 named senior moves into or out of AECOM were reported in the UK trade press in the last six months.
Leadership roles advertised
The weekly careers sweep behind the Senior Hiring Index has not recorded a leadership role at AECOM since it began: either its careers pages are not on the sweep's watchlist, or it has advertised none. Its advertised seats are not counted here; this page carries its senior moves and contract awards.
Senior moves, last six months
Named executive appointments reported in the UK construction trade press and the UK regional business press, each counted once, on the date of its first report, and linked to the report it was counted from. Non-executive, board and chair appointments are left out.
Joined AECOM
| Reported | Name | Role | Joined from | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 16 October 2026 | Steve Keetley | Highways and Streets Client Director | Not reported | Highways Magazine |
| 14 September 2026 | Darren Cook | Highways & Streets Sector Director | Not reported | Highways News |
Many senior moves are never announced, and a report names the previous employer about one time in four, so departures are undercounted.
Contract awards, last twelve months
No contract award to AECOM has been picked up from Find a Tender or Contracts Finder in the last twelve months. Much work is let through frameworks and private clients, which do not always reach the public notices.
What this means for a leader
For a leader considering AECOM, the senior team has changed in the last six months, and the appointments above show where. Its advertised seats are not counted here, so its own careers pages are the place to look, and senior seats at many employers are filled through search or from inside without an advert at all.
Common questions
Is AECOM hiring senior leaders?
The weekly careers sweep behind the Senior Hiring Index has not recorded a leadership role at AECOM, so this page does not count its advertised seats. 2 named senior appointments into the business were reported in the last six months.
Who has joined or left AECOM at senior level recently?
2 named senior appointments into AECOM were reported in the last six months. The most recent: Steve Keetley, Highways and Streets Client Director (16 October 2026); Darren Cook, Highways & Streets Sector Director (14 September 2026).
Where do these figures come from?
The role counts come from the weekly sweep of employers' own careers pages behind the Senior Hiring Index. The moves are the named executive appointments counted by the Construction Leadership Moves Index, each linked to its report. The awards are public notices from Find a Tender and Contracts Finder. The page is rebuilt from those sources every few hours.
