Ruth Clarke has been appointed as the new head of Digital for Xylem UK and Ireland. As a civil engineer, she has supported water companies with software systems for more than 25 years. Having led successful projects in areas including hydraulic modelling, operational forecasting and data analytics, she has been a driving force in shaping the sector’s digital landscape.
Ruth’s focus at Xylem will be to help utilities optimise the operation of their assets using data-driven solutions, such as the integrated software and analytics platform Xylem Vue powered by GoAigua. Just how the technology is enabling water companies to manage their sewer networks, reducing CSO discharges and stabilising flow to treatment, is the topic of a presentation she will deliver at the WWT Wastewater Conference 2024 in Birmingham on 30 January.
“I am thrilled to take up the post of head of digital at Xylem UK and Ireland. Working with water companies to help them meet their operational goals using innovative, data-driven approaches is something that I am very passionate about. With such huge challenges currently being faced by the water industry, this really is a pivotal moment in the adoption of wide scale digital solutions.” Said Ruth.
