Turner & Townsend boosts UK Bristol office capacity amid significant growth
Turner & Townsend is expanding its Bristol office to increase capacity, reflecting the company's impressive growth in the UK's South-West region.
Temple Point in the heart of Bristol has been home to Turner & Townsend since 2019. The company took the decision in December 2024 to acquire the entire fourth floor, more than doubling its office space from 6,780 sqft to 16,538 sqft.
The expansion comes as Turner & Townsend's South-West office has seen substantial growth, supported by strong demand across the business’ core sectors of real estate, infrastructure and energy and natural resources.
The Bristol office alone now accommodates 661 colleagues, up from 200 in 2019. The total number of employees across the South-West offices, including Plymouth and Cardiff, has reached 788.
Located in a prime, central location just a 5-minute walk from Temple Meads Train Station, the new office space provides modern facilities and amenities designed to enhance the working experience for employees.
The business has invested in technology upgrades like smart meeting rooms and double monitors on every desk, as well as several collaboration spaces and individual sound-proofed booths to boost productivity. Emphasising wellness at work, the office also features live plants throughout, height-adjustable desks and a dedicated employee wellness space.
Trefor Evans, Director and Strategic Lead for the South-West, UK at Turner & Townsend said:
"This move is a significant milestone for Turner & Townsend. The new office not only gives us the space we need for our growing and diverse team but also provides state-of-the-art facilities that will enhance productivity and support the well-being of our employees."
Over the past five years, we’ve seen exceptional expansion across all divisions, working alongside some of the region’s largest clients and projects, including Welsh Water, Hinkley Point C, Agratas and the defence sector.
"The investment in this space reinforces our dedication to further growth – not only in terms of business expansion but also in building a strong and engaged workforce that will be the driving force behind our delivery for clients in the years ahead."
