Peyman Mohajer brings over 40 years of international experience in the design, coordination, and project management of complex construction projects across a wide array of sectors, including commercial, retail, hospitality, exhibitions, and residential developments. With 27 of those years rooted in the Middle East, he has played a pivotal role in delivering some of the region’s most iconic high-rise structures, often distinguished by their intricate geometries and engineering challenges.

Peyman served as Regional Managing Director for the Middle East at the UK-based multidisciplinary consultancy Whitby & Bird and continued in this leadership role following its merger with Ramboll. In 2010, he founded WME Engineering Consultants, which, under his guidance, evolved over 15 years into a globally respected engineering practice. His leadership was instrumental in driving exponential growth across the region, delivering robust and high-quality engineering solutions. In 2022, WME was acquired by Egis Group, where Peyman took on the role of Regional Building Line Director, Energy & Sustainable Cities for the Middle East and South Asia. In 2024, Peyman embarked on a new journey as co-founder of 9E Global, a forward-looking venture built on decades of experience, with a mission to transform industry standards and pioneer the future of the built environment.
