WE'RE NOT ALL THE SAME AND THAT'S OUR GREATEST STRENGTH.
Join us in UK & Europe and you join over 9,000 people from a multitude of different cultures and backgrounds. Our goal is to make sure that every single person feels included, valued and has an equal voice. We aim to provide a supportive environment and be sensitive to individual needs and ambitions. We weave ED&I into all of our working practices and projects and its central to our culture.
You won’t just experience these values inside the business. You’ll also inspire the world around you – through more inclusive, accessible and sustainable design.
Whether it’s our Getting Home Safely initiative, improving safety for women in public spaces, or prioritising accessibility in infrastructure development. We’re designing places that are more sensitive to human differences – in ability, language, culture, gender, age and other forms of diversity. We’re creating a better future, and you can help make it happen.
