Ramboll appoints Trina Minchella as director of rail infrastructure and Helena Turner to lead the High Speed 2 (HS2) account
As the new director, Minchella will lead the rail infrastructure team and lead the account for TfL, ensuring Ramboll’s technical solutions and innovations are aligned with the ambitions and outcomes needed to deliver sustainable connectivity.
Over the course of her 20-year+ career, she has supported the delivery of overground and underground rail programmes with Transport for London, including the London Overground Capacity Improvement Programme and Sub-Surface Line Upgrade Programme.

Turner will lead Ramboll’s HS2 account to help strengthen client relationships and bring greater alignment of the companies capabilities to meet the ambitions for HS2.
She joins from Jacobs where she spent the past decade working on nationally significant infrastructure projects and brings international experience in Transport, Defence and Energy.
Turner has also supported projects for BAE, BP and Network Rail, where she worked on the Transpennine Route upgrade and HS2 Phase 2B.
