Facilities management (FM) specialist Macro has grown its regional team with the appointment of Emma Harvey. Harvey will join the firm’s FM consultancy team in the Middle East, and will be based out of the company’s Dubai office.

Harvey is said to have a strong background in FM operations in the region, managing projects on the client and contractor side. Her recent experience includes managing the tender process for outsourced FM services at a large entertainment project in Dubai, and the management of a large commercial tower, boasting one million sqft of total floor area.

“I am delighted to welcome Emma to the team. Her broad skillset, passion for the industry and focus on best practice made her the ideal candidate. I look forward to working with her to further expand Macro’s consultancy service offering,” says Chris Bond, director of Consultancy at Macro in the Middle East.

Harvey has over eight years of FM experience in the UAE, and has previously worked for JLL, Arabtec Holding, Serco and KPMG. Her expertise spans a wide range of sectors including commercial, residential and leisure.

The firm says Harvey will add to its talent pool and brings a wealth of experience in FM consultancy, asset management, real estate and contract management.
