Multi-disciplinary engineering consultancy Harley Haddow has launched in Birmingham, marking the firm’s third new office in four years.
In line with ambitious growth plans, Harley Haddow’s new operation is situated at Birmingham’s Runway East and is the company’s eighth location in the UK. The 11-strong team will be led by director Scott Lydon, supported by regional director Jeremy Silvester.
Providing consultancy in mechanical, electrical and public health systems within buildings, Harley Haddow Midlands will also work with public and private-sector clients to advise on building performance and efficiency.
Harley Haddow accelerated the launch of its Birmingham operation, mobilising quickly to recruit a team of experienced professionals across technical and administrative roles. The new team includes various engineers, a Building Information Modelling (BIM) specialist, an office manager, and two apprentices.
Scott said: “We know the regional market and its players very well and that, supported by the solid foundations of a 76-year-old business, is a recipe for success. Harley Haddow’s tactical move will ensure continuity across the built environment and provide a strong platform for growth.”
Jim Kellachan, director at Harley Haddow, said: “Establishing a Birmingham operation was the natural next step in our expansion plans and it's very opportune to have acquired an established team that’s ready to go.
“As a business committed to sustainability, it’s important for us to have the right people in the right places and the skills and geographic footprint provided by a new Birmingham operation will further strengthen the company.”
Established in 1950, Harley Haddow is a multidisciplinary engineering consultancy advising public and private-sector clients on Civil & Structural, Geotechnical, Energy & Sustainability, Mechanical, Electrical & Public Health (MEP) and Net Zero.
