The company reported record turnover of £380m in its most recent financial figures and has 4,300 employees worldwide. It also recently converted to a limited liability partnership.

Lloyds Bank Commercial Banking relationship director Richard Townsend said: “The impressive growth of Turner & Townsend – with turnover up by 75% since 2010 – is a testament to the ability of the ambitious and experienced management team which has a combined 125 years of service with the company.

“The strategic direction of the business, and diversity of its global reach and service proposition, means it is ideally positioned to make the most of the flourishing construction market, in which demand for expert consultancy is soaring.
