Turner & Townsend, the global programme management and construction consultancy, continues its expansion in Russia and the CIS with the opening of its new office in St Petersburg

St Petersburg is Europe’s fifth largest city. The new office, on Nevsky Prospect, will initially support a team of 20 full-time technical staff, with numbers expected to double by the end of the year.

The St Petersburg office will provide support for the company’s local and international clients currently undertaking large residential and mixed schemes, corporate headquarters and industrial developments in both St Petersburg and the Leningrad region.


This new office should enable Turner & Townsend to build upon its success in Russia, where it has set a national benchmark during its nine-year operations, delivering Russia’s first LEED Gold certified office on behalf of Siemens, alongside work with clients including Group M (WPP), KIA Motors and Young & Rubicam.

Commenting on the growth of the company, Turner & Townsend Director and Russia Country Manager, Paul Grace, said: “This is an exciting next step for our growth in Russia, and will allow us to strengthen our support to our clients in the region and further extend our range of services delivered locally.”
