A UK built environment consultancy is enjoying accelerated growth thanks to new senior appointments, more office locations and a robust pipeline of work, alongside a raft of new hires to the London office.
Wallace Whittle, the MEP, sustainability and ESG consultancy firm, has offices in Aberdeen, Belfast, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, London, Manchester and Warrington.
With 60 years of industry experience, the firm is hoping to more than double its revenues over the next three years, following the launch of two more bases last year.
Meanwhile, Peter Kirk, a former executive director at Mecserve, was appointed to lead the London office in August, bringing with him 14 staff members from Mecserve after the business went into administration.
He said: “Our team in London benefits from deep, and long-standing client relationships that Wallace Whittle has supported through extremely complex and unusual schemes.
“However, we are not just relying on our past success; it is important to be focused on the future.
“This means continuing to deliver the quality that we are known for, being that reliable partner for new and existing clients, and making room for fresh talent.”

Carl Saxon recently joined the Board as regional director in the South of England following 27 years at Hoare Lea, with a remit for strategic growth across the Midlands, alongside director Darren Wright.
Wright said: “While we have built a strong residential portfolio in Birmingham, this continued growth is what will enable us to branch out into new territory; life sciences, healthcare, and the soaring demand for data centres.
“Working seamlessly and collaboratively with Warrington, Manchester and London gives us unrivalled, collective experience.”
In addition to “unmatched” technical expertise, the team is tackling some of the sector’s biggest challenges, like regulation compliance (Gateway 2) and the skills gap.
Bosses said Wallace Whittle measures success not by commercial growth but repeat business.
The team’s hand can be seen in the Smithfield regeneration in Birmingham – one of the largest Midlands schemes outside of HS2 – as well as the King’s College London campus redevelopment of the Bush House South West Wing led by Kier.
