Mansell's Peasland to replace Balfour Beatty's Alistair Wivell


Balfour Beatty's Alistair Wivell is to retire at the end of December, aged 60.

He is currently one of four group managing directors and is responsible for Balfour's activities in three areas: UK building construction; electrical and mechanical engineering; and services.

Wivell joined Balfour in 1964 and as a result of a series of promotions, he became its managing director in 1994.

He was awarded the CBE in 1998 and four years later moved onto the group's main board.

Taking over his responsibilities will be Mike Peasland, who has been managing director of Mansell, the building services business, since it was acquired by Balfour in 2003.

Previously, Peasland was managing director of Balfour Kilpatrick.
