Singapore – Global construction consultancy Linesight has announced the appointment of Scott Halyday to Regional Director - Southeast Asia, to drive the next phase of growth for the region. Scott has a distinguished track record spanning over 19 years, managing large-scale projects globally across Data centre, Aviation, Life Sciences, High Tech Industrial, Commercial and mixed-use sectors. Prior to this role, Scott was leading operations in Singapore.

Southeast Asia remains a strategic growth region for Linesight as global businesses seek opportunities to establish and expand their operations. The region’s construction market is expected to grow consistently over the next four years. Notably, Malaysia, which has attracted substantial investments, is emerging as a prime destination for companies in mission-critical sectors.

As a member of the regional leadership team, Scott will help lead the firm’s growth ambitions across the key sectors of Data Centres, Life Sciences and Semiconductors. This includes expanding the team across the region, particularly on Project Management, Scheduling and Project Controls.

“Linesight is already well established in Southeast Asia and the firm continues to expand in key sectors of the future,” said Halyday. “I’m honoured to be appointed as Regional Director for Southeast Asia to drive innovation and excellence in our service offerings”.

Halyday will report to John Butler, Managing Director, Asia Pacific. “Looking ahead, Southeast Asia will be a high potential growth region for Linesight. Scott’s extensive global experience and his dedication in delivering superior and value-added solutions will be an asset to our operations and clients,” said Butler.
