Evora Group - Meet our Leadership Team

MARY THOMSEN

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

I have a strong faith in our outstanding team of professionals, this allows me to embrace a management style that is loose, flexible and comfortable. Trust is my guide. Our collective team has a desire to abide by a moral compass that is unwavering; this atmosphere creates a trust among the staff and is the basis of our culture. We work for clients, but we also work for one another.

CHRIS O’BRIEN

CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER

Having experience in the management and oversight of multiple municipal operations, I bring a unique perspective as I crossed over into my consultant role. The constantly evolving puzzle that is landfill operations is something that I truly enjoyed in my time as operational director as each day presented new challenges requiring the need to implement creative solutions. I find that this has carried over as I work with clients on the challenges that they encounter on both projects and within daily operations.

TIM BUELOW, P.E.

PRINCIPAL ENGINEER

One of the things I most enjoy about my position at Evora Group, is anticipating future events or requirements that a client will encounter. Through our partnership with them, we find ways to influence the future for the betterment of the client rather than just letting the future happen.

BRIAN RATH, P.E.

I look forward to working alongside all our clients, not as consultants but as an extension of their staff.
