Christian Lomax

Associate Director

With over 15 years’ experience and a technical background in flood hydrology, Christian has undertaken, supervised and independently reviewed hydrological analyses across the UK for the Environment Agency, Rivers Agency and many local authorities.

He has managed a variety of projects from surface water management plans and water cycle studies, to catchment flood management plans, including hydrological analysis that informed large-scale dam and channel design to protect Jeddah and Jazan Economic City in Saudi Arabia from severe flood events.

In 2016, Christian helped deliver the York Flood Management Plan which is using a total catchment management approach to identify short, medium and long term solutions to reduce flood risk in the City of York, UK.
