Arup appoints Jennifer DiMambro as science, industry, and tech business leader
Design, engineering, and consulting firm Arup has announced that Jennifer DiMambro will lead its science, industry, and technology arm for the Americas region. DiMambro, a principal consultant at Arup, will focus on developing the science sector while seeking out new opportunities in manufacturing and technology.
"I'm excited to help the Americas science, industry and technology business continue building on our growth,” DiMambro said. “With our team's great knowledge of architecture and a breadth of engineering and consulting expertise, we bring unique value to clients tackling the complex challenges that come with science and industry projects.”
DiMambro has been with Arup for nearly 24 years, first as an engineer, then working her way up to director and principal. She has also served as the firm’s science leader for the UK, India, Middle East, and Africa region.

It works on “functionally demanding” buildings, such as Fermilab’s Long Baseline Neutrino Facility in Lead, South Dakota. As a firm, Arup operates in more than 140 countries. It offers advisory services for building engineering and buildings systems, including transaction and procurement advice, low energy and high containment lab design, climate and resilience planning, and digital transformation consulting.
