Mayuran is the Managing Director of Adaptus. With dual degrees and experience in environmental engineering and investment finance, he has spent the past 20 years working in Australia, North America and the Middle East with companies and agencies with large footprints (in infrastructure, power, water, resources and energy sectors) to help identify and deliver win-win outcomes that optimise financial return with environmental and social outcomes. This has largely been done through the application and embedding of leading practice frameworks from the risk and decision sciences to effectively frame complex organisational problems and objectives, working with multi-disciplinary teams to identify and develop relevant solutions, characterising the uncertainties that impact decision-making, and achieving a commitment to action and investment.
In his most recent role, he established and led the largest dedicated decision and risk advisory and assurance practice in Australia as part of a global engineering and advisory firm. Other notable corporate roles he has held include Program Director for a $500m energy transition project, Post-Acquisition Integration Manager for a 125-person management consulting business, Regional Sustainability Director for a global engineering firm, Risk Manager for a $10b energy project, and Sub-sector Strategy Lead (US Unconventional Oil & Gas) for a global professional services firm.
