As part of its focus on strengthening its presence across key markets, whilst maintaining an integrated international platform, HKA has announced changes within its EMEA Construction Claims and Expert Services (CCE) Partner team.

According to a statement from the firm, Nicola Caley, Partner at HKA, will be relocating to London, and will continue to play a role on major claims assignments across EMEA. The firm said her return further strengthens HKA’s regional presence and ensures continuity across key commissions. HKA notes that Caley is already well known to colleagues and clients from her previous time in the UK.

The firm also confirmed that Tom Kapapa, Partner at HKA will relocate from Doha to Abu Dhabi, where he will play a major role in expanding HKA’s expert offering in the UAE. HKA explained that he will continue to support existing projects and client relationships in Qatar, while his presence in Abu Dhabi enhances the firm’s ability to respond to growing demand in one of the region’s most important construction markets, working closely with colleagues across the Middle East.

HKA confirmed that the updates are part of its broader strategy to align leadership with priority geographies and client demand across Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

“These developments collectively place HKA in a strong position to sustain its momentum throughout the year, strengthen client relationships, and help deliver complex, high-value projects across the region. I look forward to supporting Nicola and Tom in their new geographical roles and to their ongoing contributions to the firm’s success,” explained Haroon Niazi, Partner, Construction, Claims and Services Lead, EMEA, International at HKA.
