Lyn Leger is a Principal Environmental Consultant, with a background in marine and coastal ecology and environmental law. Lyn’s love of the marine environment has seen her stay with BMT, a marine and maritime focused consultancy, for over 20 years. During this time she has worked in the field and the office, on a wide variety of projects in Australia and internationally, from resources and energy to climate change and conservation.

In late 2020, Lyn was given the opportunity to lead BMT’s focus on renewable energy in APAC. Over the last 3 years, Lyn has had the pleasure to work with renewables sector clients and BMT’s engineers and scientists, on offshore wind, tidal, wave, pumped hydro and hydropower, as well as green hydrogen projects.

Lyn’s other focus area is aquaculture. She is excited by some of BMT’s recent work in offshore aquaculture and how this can be used to support the Australian aquaculture industry as moves further offshore are considered.
