Consultant and management consultants Turner & Townsend celebrated 40 years in Leeds recently by hosting an evening reception at its stunning new offices in Leeds.

Turner & Townsend has recently moved into the beautifully restored 16th Century barns adjacent to the listed Low Hall Head Office to house its growing team of over 250 professionals.

The newly transformed barns provided an impressive venue for an informal evening of networking, drinks and freshly cooked canapés whilst a saxophonist performed from the mezzanine.


Attended by over 200 guests, Turner & Townsend were joined by their clients, partners and associated in a lively celebration of its work in the region and beyond.

Tim Wray, Chairman said: "I am absolutely delighted that so many of our clients were able to celebrate with us. Over the past forty years, the Leeds office of Turner & Townsend has worked for, and continues to work with, many varied key regional partners. The drinks reception was held in recognition of this success and a thank you to our clients' for their continued support."

Turner & Townsend in Yorkshire has even more to celebrate. The Yorkshire Post has named the company as one of the three finalists in their Excellence in Business Awards, in the category of companies with a turnover above £50 million. The winner will be announced on 17 October 2008.
