Stantec, a global leader in sustainable design and engineering, has opened a new office in the heart of Brighton. The 4,400 square foot space will provide a hub for its teams sitting in a range of sectors.
Stantec’s experts work alongside customers across the built environment to create sustainable, prosperous, and equitable communities, fit for the future. The company, which has been named the most sustainable of its kind, has dozens of offices across the UK and Ireland. The move into Brighton will help Stantec connect further with its existing and prospective clients within the Sussex region in line with its ambitious national growth strategy.
The new workspace at Huntingdon House in the heart of Brighton, has been designed with health and well-being in mind and will be the new work hub for up to 45 Stantec colleagues. The company already works extensively with Southern Water, which is benefitting from support to increase the long-term resilience of its water networks. The Stantec teams also have a long-standing presence in the region having supported community development and active travel schemes.
The Brighton office will be looking to fill graduate and apprenticeship positions across various sectors over the next few months, as well as more senior planning, engineering and design roles. The new hires will be able to work on some of the country’s most transformative and iconic engineering and design projects.
Ben Elsworth, Stantec’s Operations Director commented:
“This office is really a game-changer for us. As well offering a fantastic space, it is extremely accessible being a 10-minute walk from the station and only five minutes away from the beach. Our new workspace will bring our teams closer together, while strengthening our client relationships.
“The UK projects we work on at Stantec are key to shaping a healthier, sustainable, and more resilient nation. Whether encouraging active travel, incorporating smart mobility and inclusivity into plans, or rethinking the way we look at buildings, water, energy, and resources, we are always designing with community in mind.”
“Our teams benefit from global expertise paired with local knowledge, helping them make the most of their careers. We’re delighted to be able to open doors for young people looking to enter the industry while also offering dynamic and rewarding opportunities for established practitioners.”
