Biography

Roger completed his undergraduate degree in physical geography in 1984 (Sussex), and his PhD in 1988 (King’s College, London). He joined Geomorphological Services Ltd (GSL) in 1988 working on international development and UK-based commercial work in applied geomorphology. In 1990, Roger joined Rendel Geotechnics, part of the High Point Rendel group, where he continued his applied geomorphology work for UK central and local government, and a variety of civil engineering projects around the world. In 1997, Roger joined Halcrow Group Ltd and worked in Hong Kong for 3 years working with the Hong Kong Government’s Geotechnical Engineering Office on two landmark projects, the Landslip Investigation Consultancy, and the Natural Terrain Hazards and Risk Area Studies; both of these commissions were aimed at developing assessment methods for reducing the impact and risk of slope instability and landslides in Hong Kong and the New Territories. Roger returned to the UK in 2000 and has developed and led a team of engineering geomorphologists, the largest group of its kind in commercial practice in the UK. The team undertakes applied geomorphology work in the UK and overseas for governments, agencies, developers and operators. Since 2008, Roger has been in discussion with Sussex regarding collaboration in research, consultancy and the development of a unique MSc / CPD programme in applied geomorphology to support industry. Roger was appointed Professor of Applied Geomorphology at Sussex in November 2010. He fulfills this role on a part-time basis in parallel with his position at CH2M (formerly Halcrow).

Role

Roger has three principal objectives and roles:

  1. Lead the innovative design, development and delivery of an MSc/ CPD programme in Engineering Geomorphology
  2. Play a role in the development and implementation of School research strategies, and lead and co-ordinate research activity in applied geomorphology
  3. Play a lead role in identifying and exploring opportunities for enterprise activity, knowledge exchange income and consultancy

Community and Business

Roger is director of global technology for the tunnels and earth engineering group at CH2M (formerly Halcrow Group Ltd). He also serves as editorial board member for the Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology, Journal of Landslides and Geotechnique. He is Fellow of the Geological Society London and the Institution of Civil Engineers representing the interests of professionals in ground engineering and geomorphology. He is member of the accreditation panel for the Geological Society and serves on a number of steering committees and research networks listed below.
