We are deeply saddened by the passing of our dear friend, colleague and Chairman, Harry Meighan, and we extend our heartfelt condolences to his family.
Harry joined ROD in 1998, becoming our Managing Director in 2009 and our Chairman in 2021. He has done so much for ROD, growing our Contract Administration Group and developing our Intelligent Transport Systems Group. Our graduate programme and most of the processes, procedures and task groups that we now take for granted were conceived by him. He also oversaw the opening of our first North Dublin office.
Following a chance encounter in 2010, Harry was introduced to the Chairman of Europengineers and ROD was soon signed up as the Irish member. He subsequently became Chairman, and ROD’s involvement and contribution was something of which he was particularly proud.
Harry first mooted the suggestion of a ROD50 celebration about five years before the anniversary in 2024. His vision for an event for staff and their partners and his drive to ensure the event was perfect were incredible, and for that we are eternally grateful.
It has been our honour and privilege to work with Harry and to get to know Catherine and their sons. He always had a great sense of fair play and there were plenty of laughs along the way.
Harry was an extremely talented engineer and an incredible leader. He was our friend and will always be in our hearts.
Our offices will be closed on June 10th, 2025.
