Communities

Building Local Legacy.


“Taking proactive steps to bridge the gap between industry and the local community through education, employment, and service.”

Educational Outreach & Work Experience

We work closely with local authorities and schools to provide students with a genuine insight into the built environment.

  • Student Placements: We offer work experience within a dynamic, professional, and friendly environment, giving students valuable insight into industry careers.

  • Inspiring the Next Generation: By liaising with schools and local industry, we encourage local employment opportunities and highlight the diverse career paths available within the sector.

  • Broad Opportunities: Placements are available across the Group, including Architecture, Engineering, Surveying and Project Management, Compliance and our support teams.

Public Service & Civic Duty

We encourage our team members to be active and contribute to the wider social fabric.

  • Dedicated Time Off: We allow staff time off to perform essential Public Service duties.

  • Community Roles: This includes supporting our people as they serve the community as Magistrates, Tribunal Members, or School Governors.

  • National Service: We provide flexibility for staff members involved in Territorial Army (TA) training and other civic responsibilities.
