Welcoming James to help grow and strengthen our Client Services Division, as the business continues to expand across the UK.
We’re pleased to welcome James Lees to Aqualogic as Client Services Contracts Director. James joins us on 6 July, supporting our Client Services Director Jonathan Adler, and steps into a senior role as the Client Services Division continues to grow.
James brings a strong technical and contracts background to the role. He joins from the Water Research Centre (WRc), where he was Technical Director, leading the WRc Approved and Assurance business areas alongside the centre’s Water Efficiency and Water Regulations activities. Before WRc, he spent twelve years at Dŵr Cymru Welsh Water in roles including Leakage Delivery Manager for the South West, Networks Contracts Manager and Network Services Manager. It’s the kind of frontline, technical grounding that fits the way we work: practical, hands-on and close to delivery.
He first qualified at Cardiff University in Marine Geography and has since added PRINCE2, NEBOSH and ILM Level 5, along with a range of testing and auditing accreditations.
As Client Services Contracts Director, James will support Jonathan Adler, our Client Services Director and oversee key account management across the division, helping make sure clients get a consistent, high-quality experience from first contact through to ongoing support. His appointment is part of a wider phase of investment in the business, and in the people and capability behind it.
It also says something about how Aqualogic is growing. We’re a business with national reach and a culture where people genuinely look out for each other, where leadership stays close to the work, and where the focus is firmly on doing work that matters: helping the UK waste less water and manage it more intelligently. James joins a team built around exactly that.
“I’m delighted to welcome James to the team. His experience across the water sector speaks for itself, and he shares the practical & collaborative way that we approach our work. He’ll be a real asset to the Senior Leadership Team as we continue to grow our Client Services offering.”
Ashley Williams, Chief Growth Officer
Welcome to the team, James.
