Ramboll has appointed Houssam Choukair as Associate Director – High Rise and Complex Buildings, Head of Mechanical, and Mohamed Ali as Head of ICT, ELV and Smart Technology Services, reinforcing its technical leadership across the Middle East.
The appointments reflect a continued focus on strengthening core engineering disciplines while integrating advanced smart technologies into large-scale projects.
Imran Shaikh, Director of MEP & Specialisms – Middle East at Ramboll, said, “Houssam and Mohamed Ali’s appointments reflect our commitment to strengthening leadership in areas that directly shape the future of building performance in the region.
The appointments are aimed at strengthening Ramboll’s expertise in high-rise developments and complex building structures, areas that continue to see rising demand across global urban markets.
The newly appointed leaders will focus on enhancing project execution, driving innovation in structural engineering, and supporting sustainable building practices. As cities expand vertically and architectural designs grow increasingly sophisticated, engineering consultancies are prioritizing specialized leadership to manage complexity, safety, and sustainability standards. Ramboll’s latest leadership additions align with its commitment to delivering resilient, future-ready infrastructure solutions.
The company emphasized that these appointments will enhance collaboration across multidisciplinary teams, support client engagement on large-scale developments, and reinforce its position in the competitive high-rise and complex buildings sector. With strengthened leadership in place, Ramboll aims to further expand its portfolio of landmark projects while maintaining excellence in design, engineering precision, and sustainable development.
