Rob Swiniarski appointed Office Director, Salt Lake City

BBA is pleased to announce the appointment of Rob Swiniarski as Office Director, Salt Lake City.

Rob Swiniarski graduated from the University of British Columbia and spent the first part of his career as a process engineer in Canada before settling in Salt Lake City in 2012. With over 35 years of experience, he has led numerous project management mandates using his 360° vision and ability to develop multidisciplinary teams.

“We’re thrilled to have Rob Swiniarski take the reins of our first U.S. office! His extensive experience, ability to lead large teams and guide them to their full potential as well as his inspiring leadership and versatility will undoubtedly help establish our firm in the U.S.,” announced Martin Milot, Chief Operating Officer.

As you may remember, BBA recently opened an office in Salt Lake City as part of its international growth strategy. The decision to set up in Utah's capital is designed to bolster the firm's expansion strategy in the U.S. market and bring BBA closer to its clients in a region that offers attractive business opportunities, particularly in the mining and metals sector.

Hassiba Lkoun, Director of Engineering, and Marc Tardif, an expert in process control and operational technology, have been on site for several months now to ensure the opening of this new branch goes well, in addition to carrying out automation and electrical engineering mandates at Rio Tinto’s Kennecott mine.

“I’m excited about establishing and strengthening BBA’s presence in the United States. I've had incredible support from the firm, and I'm impressed by its structure, which allows us to bring in experts from other offices while our team here continues to grow,” adds Mr. Swiniarski.
