Richard Boyd
Senior Engineer
I am a Senior Engineer at Arup. I have a diverse professional experience making me uniquely placed to tackle systemic challenges in the built environment. After four years of building design and construction experience in the UK, Middle East and South Asia, my focus on embodied carbon led me to specialise in environmental impacts of construction products and supply chains. My work covers a diverse range of complementary skills and capabilities, founded on the calculation completing GHG emissions for products, construction projects, cities and economic sectors.
I can also provide comparative sustainability studies for construction supply chain businesses, design and implement carbon management processes, and use circular economy principles as a set of tools and an inspiration for reducing emissions impact of the sector. I manage Arup’s global partnership with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, and have led research projects on circular economy with the Foundation as well as with academic institutions like UCL and ETH Zurich.
