Linbrooke appoints new Scotland director
Signalling engineer Mike Burns has been named the new Scotland director at Linbrooke Services.
Burns has had leading roles on high-profile projects including the Edinburgh Waverley Infrastructure Enhancements, Airdrie to Bathgate and Linked Improvements (A2B), the London Victoria Line Upgrade and the Edinburgh to Glasgow Improvement Programme (EGIP). He also mobilised and led Siemens’ successful bidding and tender process for the prominent Thameslink Key Output 2 programme.
Aside from Siemens (in its previous guises as Westinghouse Rail Systems and then Invensys), Burns has also worked at Rhodar and First Engineering.
Linbrooke said his “delivery experience and business initiative” is the perfect fit for the company.
Burns said: “Coming from a strong management and delivery background, Linbrooke’s ethos and vision aligns perfectly with my own and I am very much looking forward to being a part of the Linbrooke leadership team.”
