Gary Curran

Following graduation from QUB Gary undertook a research role to develop the operating strategy for the new Lagan Weir before gaining his PhD. He then moved to a local consultancy firm for a period before joining NIW 32 years ago. Gary started his career in Water Service’s Design Group before transferring into Customer and Operations, ultimately with responsibility for the Developer Services, Metering & Billing Teams. Currently Gary is Director of Engineering & Sustainability within NIW.  This team is essentially the asset owner and it is their responsibility to ensure that the most appropriate asset is available to ensure a compliant and efficient delivery of water and wastewater services.  Gary is very conscious of NIW’s obligations for the environment and climate as clearly articulated in his oversight of his Drinking Water, Environmental Regulation and Climate Teams. Outside of NIW Gary has been the Secretary for ICE and is currently a Director in UKWIR and a Trustee for the NIW Pensions Scheme.
