Mark became a Director of WWA in 2015 and is currently head of the London office. He has extensive experience in the residential, education and healthcare sectors and is an expert in specialist housing, having successfully delivered projects across several Local Authority areas. He is also a non-executive Director of EHSL, a supported housing provider.

The current configuration of the Director team remains unchanged, with Ifti Maniar leading WWA’s Planning Consultancy offer, Jonathan Headland working from Oxford and Jean Hanna from our London office collaborating with the rest of our team in the delivery of our multi-disciplinary approach.

“It is an honour to be given this opportunity and I am looking forward to continuing to build on the long history of WWA, sustainably evolving the practice into the future. The last few years have been a challenge for the construction sector, and I am sure there will be many more challenges ahead. I am lucky to be surrounded by an excellent team and cannot wait to achieve more success for our clients.” ~ Mark Slater, Managing Director
