We’re excited to announce the final hire from this Easter round of recruitment – Ismini Sarikou has joined us as a Senior Flood Risk Modeller, building out our modelling expertise and rounding out a great team!
Here’s Ismini in her words
I am a Senior Flood Risk Consultant and I have been working in the UK since 2014 for major consultancies.
I have completed a Civil Engineering Bachelor-Master’s programme at Aristotle University Thessaloniki, Greece. After I graduated, I joined the Erasmus Mundus sponsored “EuroAquae” MSc programme which spanned across three universities (Polytechnic University of Catalonia (Barcelona), Newcastle University, University of Shophia-Nice Antipolis) and ended with an internship in Jakarta, Indonesia. My studies were primarily focused on Hydro-informatics and Water Management.
For the last 8 years, I have been working on a variety of Hydrological and Flood Assessment projects for a range of clients in the UK and overseas. I have experience in the industry-standard software and methodologies applied for hydrology and flood risk assessments. This includes the Flood Estimation Handbook (FEH), ReFH, WINFAP-FEH, hydraulic modelling with Flood Modeller, Tuflow, HEC-RAS, and Infoworks ICM. I have been involved in various project management tasks and I have been training new modelers in Hydrology and Hydraulic modelling. The most notable projects I was involved in, include the A9 Dualling in Scotland, the HS2 railway in England, and A5 Western Transport Corridor in Northern Ireland.
If you have any experience with Greek culture, you wouldn’t be surprised that I am extremely extroverted. My biggest passion is traveling, as I feel that nothing compares with the excitement of learning about new cultures and meeting new people. Rock climbing, diving, yoga, and reading are some of my other interests.
If you feel that my profile matches the skills you are looking for, don’t hesitate to contact Aegaea, as I am confident that our enthusiastic team will be able to assist you.
