WSP appoints Dincer Mete as Director of Infrastructure in the Middle East

Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia – 17 August 2026 - WSP, one of the world’s leading professional services consulting firms, has appointed Dincer Mete as Director of Infrastructure, Middle East. Based in Riyadh, Dincer will support the continued growth and delivery of WSP’s Transport & Infrastructure business across the region, including complex and nationally significant programmes in the Kingdom.

Dincer brings 25 years of international experience across major infrastructure, transportation, engineering, construction and EPC programmes, with a strong track record in leading multidisciplinary teams, managing complex stakeholder environments and supporting the successful delivery of large-scale projects across Saudi Arabia, Türkiye, Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

His appointment marks a return to WSP, where he previously worked between 2012 and 2017, including as Design Interface Manager on the landmark Eurasia Tunnel Project, a double-deck road tunnel beneath the Bosphorus connecting the European and Asian sides of Istanbul. He later moved into a broader infrastructure project management role within WSP’s Istanbul office.

Since leaving WSP, Dincer has held senior infrastructure and engineering leadership roles across major programmes in Türkiye and Saudi Arabia. This includes the 1915 Çanakkale Suspension Bridge Project, the world’s longest main-span suspension bridge at 2,023 metres, where he led EPC design management and the design-to-construction interface throughout its fast-track delivery.

Most recently, he led a 170-person multidisciplinary engineering business unit in Saudi Arabia, with responsibility for business performance and a portfolio of more than 35 projects. This experience will support WSP’s continued focus on strong delivery, client relationships and technical excellence across its infrastructure portfolio in the Middle East.

In his new role, Dincer will support the successful delivery of WSP’s infrastructure portfolio across the Middle East, strengthen relationships with clients and strategic stakeholders, develop high-performing teams and contribute to the continued growth of the Transport & Infrastructure business across the region.
