Leeds-based professional services firm Turner and Townsend has announced that its turnover has breached the £1 billion mark for the first time.
“We see continued growth in major programme activity and we are well placed to maintain this momentum, with 80 percent of our UK business now operating in this area. Future success in high growth sectors is underpinned by our investment in developing and recruiting the next generation of specialists in both data science and sustainability.”
Outside the UK, the firm cited a number of regional hotspots, including the Americas, where revenue grew 58.5 per cent, and employee numbers rose over 50 per cent. The firm also cited Australia and New Zealand as another hotspot, which saw a 36 per cent rise in net revenue and a 36.4 percent increase in staff. The firm was also involved in the 13 floor fit-out of Salesforce Tower, in Sydney.
Global infrastructure net revenue for Turner and Townsend rose by 34.3 percent over the year, helped by continued investment in transport and utility networks.
