EXP Promotes Veteran Kevin George to Lead Major Projects Amid Unprecedented Infrastructure Investment
Anonymous
EXP, a global engineering and consulting firm, has promoted Kevin George to lead its Major Projects sector, the company announced on August 4, 2026. Financial Post reported the appointment comes amid what the firm calls an "unprecedented" wave of infrastructure investment across Canada and beyond.
George brings more than 40 years of industry experience to the role. Since joining EXP in 2021, he has helped deliver some of Canada's largest rail and transit projects, representing billions of dollars in investment. His new role covers transportation, transit, energy and critical infrastructure markets worldwide.
George's Four Decades of Infrastructure Experience
Kevin George is not new to big projects. He has spent over 40 years working in engineering and infrastructure, according to Recorder. That experience spans transportation, transit and energy — some of the most complex sectors in the industry.
In his new role, George will lead major pursuits strategy, market growth and client engagement. He will also oversee project delivery across EXP's biggest markets. Calgary Sun noted his appointment reflects growing client demand for partners who can handle megaprojects and complex stakeholder environments.
Billions in Canadian Rail and Transit Projects at Stake
Since joining EXP in 2021, George has contributed to several of Canada's most significant rail and transit investments. Leader-Post reported these projects represent billions of dollars in infrastructure spending. They have also reshaped communities across the country.
EXP says clients now need partners with proven experience in delivering megaprojects through alternative delivery models. Alternative delivery means approaches like public-private partnerships, where private firms help fund and build public infrastructure. George's background makes him well-suited to lead those efforts, the firm said.
EXP Doubles Down on Major Projects Strategy
EXP describes itself as a global firm working across engineering, architecture, design and consulting. The firm is based in Brampton, Ontario. George's promotion signals EXP is betting heavily on large-scale infrastructure as a growth area, according to Daily Guardian.
Fort Saskatchewan Record reported the appointment reinforces EXP's commitment to supporting clients through complex, high-value projects. With governments in Canada and globally increasing infrastructure budgets, firms like EXP are positioning themselves to capture a larger share of that spending.
Why This Appointment Matters for Infrastructure Delivery
Large infrastructure projects often face delays and cost overruns. Experienced leadership is seen as one key way to reduce those risks. Cold Lake Sun noted that clients are looking for partners who have "proven experience" guiding megaprojects from start to finish.
George's role puts him at the center of EXP's biggest bets. As governments invest heavily in transit, energy grids and transportation networks, the demand for skilled project leaders is growing fast. His appointment places EXP in a strong position to compete for those contracts.
