Linda is an environmental scientist with a background in chemistry and has been involved in water quality consulting for the last 25 years. She joined PDP in 2018 after immigrating from South Africa. Her background has been based in surface water quality analysis ranging from focused facility-specific water quality assessments and water balances to broad catchment management studies and water resources planning on a national scale.

Since being in New Zealand she has been involved in several stormwater-related projects involving the assessment of water quality and the appropriate treatment thereof.

Linda was also involved in developing risk assessment models for large industrial plants as part of their Integrated Water Management Plans and mining facilities as part of their operational and closure plans using the Goldsim model.

Murray is an environmental engineer with over 15 years of experience in the water and wastewater sector. He specialises in the mechanical and civil design of wastewater treatment plants, water supply systems and pump stations.

Murray has extensive experience in administering construction contracts and has a strong interest in procurement and setting up contract frameworks that lead to success.

Philip has over 14 years of experience in various phases of water and environmental-related projects. He moved to New Zealand in 2018 and has since been working across New Zealand including Fiji and New Caledonia. With a background in 3 waters, his recent focus was within stormwater-related projects which included both small to multi-disciplinary large-scale projects.

Philip’s wealth of knowledge spans multi-disciplinary infrastructure projects, stormwater assessment including technical reviews, infrastructure detailed design, and treatment and design. His expertise in 3 waters bulk and reticulation infrastructure design for both rural and urban areas, master plans and stormwater management plans, water demand management, maintenance and operational plans for 3 waters are second to none. Philip is also well-versed in investigation studies and supporting business cases, project management, and assets verification and auditing.
