Turner & Townsend On The Move In The Midlands

Following a strong period of growth in the East Midlands, Turner & Townsend's Nottingham office has relocated to larger premises from the Norwich Union building where staff have been based for the past six years.

During that time staff numbers have more than tripled to a total of 57 who support a growing number of high profile regional clients including Nottingham City and Nottinghamshire County Councils, Driving Standards Agency and Experian.

International construction and management consultant, Turner & Townsend, has a total of 14 UK offices.

The global business has posted record results despite the difficult economic conditions felt throughout the construction industry as a whole.

Certainly Turner & Townsend's expertise within the Education sector has developed more varied business opportunities for the Nottingham office, as well as protecting against the industry-wide impact of expensive debt and squeezed capital programmes.

To date, the Nottingham office has successfully led on a wide range of further education establishments including Bilborough and Stephenson Colleges, as well as the ongoing ambitious programme at Nottingham Trent University.

Peter Orton, Director of the Nottingham office, said: "I am immensely proud of the achievements made by regional staff, who have worked so tirelessly and professionally to deliver an excellent service to all our clients.

"Nottingham office staff are excited to be moving to new premises which will accommodate yet further future growth."
