About the speaker

Mark Jordan Mott MacDonald

Mark Jordan has worked principally in the Transport Sector over more than 30 years, spending half of his working life in the UK and half in Australia based in SA. After starting out as a Civil Structures engineer in the UK, Mark migrated to Adelaide in 2001, working initially on the Alice Springs to Darwin Railway project as Bridgeworks Design Coordinator, before growing a project management team and then leading the transport business of KBR across SA and WA for a period of 10 years. After a return to the UK for 5 years to work on HS2 with Mott MacDonald as Design Programme Manager and latterly Design Delivery Director, Mark has returned to Adelaide again where he is now involved in Mott MacDonald’s work with DIT on the North South Corridor (NSC). Mark’s relationship with the NSC extends back to 2005, having been PM for planning study work on Northern Expressway, Port Wakefield Road Upgrade, South Road Tram Overpass, and South Road Regency Park to ANZAC Highway, and PM for delivery phase services on Southern Expressway Duplication and Darlington Upgrade Project D&Cs.

Mark will talk about his previous experience on the NSC, and more recent experience on the HS2 project with a reflection on what it means to work on a mega-project, as Adelaide sits on the eve of the start of the central tunnel section of the NSC and its own mega-project.
