AECOM (NYSE: ACM), the world’s trusted infrastructure consulting firm, today announced it has appointed Jill Hudkins as chief executive of its new Water & Environment Advisory global business line. The appointment of Ms. Hudkins and the formation of the new advisory business mark key milestones in the Company’s growth strategy, which is built on extending AECOM’s competitive advantage by drawing on its technical leadership and strong client relationships to develop complementary, high-value businesses.

The Water & Environment Advisory global business line will focus on advising clients to strategically guide them through the lifecycle of their largest and most complex water and environmental management challenges. Leveraging AECOM’s existing number one water, environmental engineering and environmental science businesses, as ranked by Engineering-News Record, the new advisory business will expand the Company’s capabilities in high growth areas, such as advanced digital water asset management and automation, environmental permitting, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) remediation and emerging opportunities for water solutions in high-tech environments.

“I’m pleased to welcome Jill to AECOM to lead the expansion of our water and environment advisory business and continue on our path to double the size of our industry-leading water capabilities over the next five years,” said Troy Rudd, AECOM’s chief executive officer. “Much like how key leadership appointments were central to the success of growing our Program Management business, Jill’s appointment, along with our commitment to investing in key resources to expand our capabilities, sets the foundation for similar success in this new business line. We are excited by the opportunities ahead as we respond to our clients’ increasing demand for comprehensive advisory, consulting, design, and program management solutions that address today’s most pressing water and environmental challenges.”

Ms. Hudkins previously served as President at Tetra Tech with more than 25 years of experience spanning several operational and strategic leadership roles at the firm. During her tenure, she led the advancement of digital applications and data analytics across its global operations in water, environment, and sustainable infrastructure, including the launch and rapid growth of its Digital Water practice.

“Jill is a respected authority in our industry, and I look forward to working with her to advance our strategy for helping clients navigate their growing complexities and challenges, while also ensuring their projects deliver long-term value for communities and the planet,” said Lara Poloni, AECOM’s president. “The development of our Water & Environment Advisory global business line brings exciting prospects for our people as we seize emerging opportunities. With Jill at the helm, we will build a world-class team and platform that shapes the future of environmental and water management through visionary, knowledge-driven solutions.”

Ms. Hudkins obtained her master's degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and bachelor's degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Duke University. She currently serves on the University of Miami’s College of Engineering Academic Review Committee.
