Biography

Rob Leslie-Carter was born in Oxford, England on 24 October 1970. After periods living in Doha, Qatar (1972–76) and Chester (1976–82) his family returned to Oxford in 1982.

From Magdalen College School in Oxford, he went on to study Civil Engineering at the University of Bristol, graduating in 1992.

Leslie-Carter married Claire Saxby in 2000. They have four children – two daughters (Isabel and Eve) born at home in East London, and two sons (Lawrence and Arthur) born at home in Sydney.

Arup career

Leslie-Carter has worked with Arup since graduating from Bristol University in 1992. He began his career in Arup's Newcastle office, and spent periods in Arup's Middlesbrough and Manchester offices before moving to Arup Project Management in London in 1996.[12] With Arup Project Management, his first major Client role was managing the start up and technical multiplex construction for the start up of OnDigital, a direct competitor to Sky at the launch of Digital terrestrial television in 1998.

From 1998 to 2002, Leslie-Carter was Client Project Manager for the Laban Dance School in Deptford, south-east London. He was named 'Project Manager of the Year' at the 2003 UK Association for Project Management Awards, for his leadership of the project.[13] Designed by Swiss architects Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron, Laban also won the Stirling Prize for Architecture in 2003, the UK Royal Fine Arts Commission Trust Award, and a High Commendation at the British Construction Industry Awards.[14] In 2008, five years after it opened, Laban was named Britain's most inspiring building by the Daily Telegraph.[15] During his 4½ years working on the Laban project, he completed an MBA at Imperial College Business School, met and married his wife Claire Saxby, and had the first two of their four children.[16] The week after Laban's opening ceremony, Leslie-Carter and his family moved with Arup to Sydney, Australia.

Between 2003 and 2008, Leslie-Carter managed Arup's multi-disciplinary design team for the Beijing National Aquatics Centre (the Water Cube), for the 2008 Summer Olympics. The Water Cube hosted the swimming and diving and events at the 2008 Olympic Games. 25 world records were broken in what is now the fastest pool in world, and Michael Phelps set a new Olympic landmark with eight gold medals. In 2008 Leslie-Carter collected the 'International Project of the Year' awards from both the Australian Institute of Project Management and the UK Association for Project Management for his role on the Water Cube. Working with PTW Architects, and CSCEC International Design, the Water Cube has also won the 2004 Venice Biennale Architecture Awards, the Sir William Hudson Award at the Australian Engineering Excellence Awards, and the MacRobert Award – the UK's biggest prize for engineering innovation.[17][18][19]

From 2005 onwards, he was involved in major Australian infrastructure projects, including the redevelopment of Sydney's Town Hall Rail station, advising the Australian Department of Defence on Public Private Partnership project transactions, and the Domestic Terminal Expansion at Brisbane Airport. Between 2009 and 2012 he led Arup's Project Management team on NewActon Nishi - ‘Australia’s most sustainable building’ and the centrepiece of Canberra’s award-winning NewActon precinct. Nishi was named International Project of the year at the 2015 UK Building Awards.[20] During his stay in Australia he was a guest lecturer at the University of New South Wales, part of their Masters of Project Management course.

Leslie-Carter moved back to England with his family in November 2013, and is a Director in Arup's London office. In April 2017 he created and was lead author for 'Future of Project Management', a collaboration between Arup, The Bartlett School of Construction and Project Management at UCL, and the Association for Project Management, with crowdsourced inputs from the global project management community.
