New Director of Design & Construction announced
Facility Services is welcoming back a former staff member, this time to lead the Design & Construction team.
Norm Hawton, whose most recent role was as the director of Design & Construction at York University, was also Facility Services’ director of design and construction from 2018 to 2020.
“Norm is known for leading with integrity and supporting his team. We are looking forward to welcoming Norm back to the university and supporting the many significant projects we have underway,” says Ehab Kamarah, associate vice-president and chief facilities officer.
Facility Services’ Director of Design and Construction leads a team of project managers to plan, design and build campus facilities. They also play a central role in supporting alignment with the campus plan, including ensuring new construction adheres to McMaster’s sustainable and accessible design standards.
“I look forward to returning to McMaster and supporting excellence in both the quality of our physical spaces and the operations of how we build as a campus,” Hawton says.
Hawton holds an MBA from York University and a B.Eng. in electrical engineering from Toronto Metropolitan University. Hawton officially begins his role on November 4, 2024.
