With more than 25 years of experience in the property sector, Mike Newman leads our team of civil and structural engineers as Regional Director following the merger with RSK LDE Land & Development Engineering. In this expanded role, he oversees a larger team across a broader area of the Northwest, driving excellence in client service and engineering delivery.

Mike is passionate about providing an outstanding customer experience, drawing on the team's technical expertise and proactive approach to support project teams and achieve successful outcomes for clients.

His career spans a diverse range of projects within the built environment, including new-build developments, refurbishments, and maintenance works across residential, retail, transport, healthcare, education, and civic sectors. His experience includes complex high-rise and stadium projects, as well as several landmark developments such as the Manchester Civil Justice Centre, Manchester Arndale Centre, and Wembley Stadium.

Among his notable achievements is leading the engineering team on Manchester New Square, a residential development involving the complex repurposing of an existing four-storey-deep basement. This project earned Mike and his team a prestigious North West Institution of Structural Engineers (IStructE) Award. More recently, he led the team behind the restoration and redevelopment of the historic Pump House at Luneside, a project recognised with the North West IStructE Sustainability Award.

As RoC enters its next chapter, Mike is focused on delivering high-quality engineering advice, strengthening partnerships with clients and industry peers, and building upon the company’s reputation as one of the leading engineering consultancies in the Northwest.
