About the Company
Our client is a high performing, private equity backed consultancy that specialises in project management, cost consultancy, and building surveying.

Within the UK and Europe, the business now employs circa 800 people and has ambitions to double in size within the next five years. The company operates across major UK cities and is particularly active in large-scale infrastructure, commercial, and public sector developments. The business remains focused and disciplined in its service offering, eschewing a multi- disciplinary model in favour of deep expertise and consistent delivery.
