New chief for Engineers Without Borders UK


John Kraus

John Kraus joins the campaign as chief executive from the International Geosynthetics Society, where he had been executive director for a year. Before that he spent nine years with the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors’ external affairs team. As its head of sustainable urbanisation, he is credited with setting up the World Built Environment Forum.

Before RICS, John Kraus spent 18 years as a civil servant at the Foreign & Commonwealth office, with roles including climate change chief of staff and head of the UN human rights team.

“I have spent much of my career trying to bring sustainability into wider, structural conversations,” he said. “We stand at a crossroads where the planetary boundaries are being tested as never before. Our response must be nothing short of a sustainability revolution.”

He continued: “Engineers can lead the way. At Engineers Without Borders UK, our aim is to equip and embolden professionals to embed responsible choices into their work to ensure an equitable environment for all people and a sustainable future for our planet.”

He takes over the job from Donald Campbell-Brown, who stepped in as interim chief executive back in January 2021 when previous incumbent Katie Cresswell-Maynard left on maternity leave.

NuGen Properties built an extension to the rear of my property, replacing the old conservatory. I am so pleased I chose this company. From the initial quotation, through the build and after they were professional, polite & well mannered. They kept the site tidy throughout the build and kept me informed of each stage as it happened. The work was finished to a good standard and I have had nothing but compliments on their work. I am already planning for them to come back and do some more work for me in a few months. I would 100% recommend them.
