Construction consultancy Bentley has undergone a significant organisational restructure in support of its ongoing growth plans.
Following a comprehensive review of its operating model, Bentley has introduced a new structure that will enhance regional growth, improve operational efficiency, and create newly developed career progression pathways for its team.
The restructure aims to enable scalability, sustainability, and adaptability across multiple sectors, ensuring the company remains responsive to evolving market conditions.
As part of this transformation, several key leadership appointments have been made, which include director Matt Morrell taking on a new focus, to enhance Bentley’s technical expertise, project delivery, and upskilling of staff within the business.
Director, Sue Hunter takes on an expanded role as regional director for Bentley’s Midlands activity, as well as managing the business’s growing project management team.

Speaking on her new role, Sue said: “This restructure marks an exciting new chapter for Bentley as we position ourselves for long-term growth. By refining our structure and strengthening leadership across key sectors, we are ensuring that our clients continue to receive the highest level of expertise and service.
“I’m looking forward to doing my part to ensuring excellence remains at the core of everything we do, and to playing a pivotal role in driving this next stage of Bentley’s success.”
Jonathon Bentley, managing director at Bentley, added: “Our business has evolved significantly over the past decade and to achieve our long-term vision, we need a structure that is fit for purpose.
“This restructure provides the foundations for our next phase of growth, allowing us to strengthen our regional presence, particularly in the North West, Midlands and beyond, while improving collaboration and cohesion across the business.
