Managing Director
In September 2023, Alex Bennett acquired all the shares in MEC, marking a pivotal moment in the companies history. He successfully bought out Co-Founder Eddie Mewies and now assumes the role of Managing Director.
Alex's journey with MEC began at its inception as a founding Director and co-owner. Over the years, he has been instrumental in shaping the company's operations, leading major projects, coordinating technical teams, and driving business development efforts.
Studying Geography at university, leaving with a Bachelor of Science Degree (with Honours), Alex has since become a Member of the Chartered Institute of Highways and Transportation (MCIHT) and the Transport Planning Society (MTPS), where his vast knowledge is recognised.
Alex has spent his career working for consulting engineers providing a wide range of professional advice to developer and landowner clients on a diverse range of issues. Starting as a Transport Planner, Alex has since broadened his experience into other areas, now having extensive knowledge across a wide range of technical disciplines within MEC.
Outside work, Alex regularly attends the gym and enjoys a game of 5-aside football; he also loves spending quality time with his two children, Isaac and Eliza.
