Angela Reeve

Full-service planning and development consultancy Turley has expanded into the East Midlands after opening an office in Nottingham.

The employee-owned company, which operates across 14 other major cities throughout the UK and Ireland, says it sees this expansion as a “critical step” in the long-term growth of its Midlands business unit.

Turley’s office is based just off Wollaton Street in Nottingham.

The business most recently worked on IM Properties Hinckley Park scheme in the Hinckley & Bosworth borough which is now two-thirds complete with the final phase under construction. In total, it will deliver approximately 140,000 sq m of industrial and logistics floorspace and create around. 2,000 direct jobs.

The team will include Angela Reeve, head of planning, Midlands; Jessica Herritty, associate director and current chair of the RTPI East Midlands Young Planners Committee and Women in Planning East Midlands Committee; Tom Armfield, director; and Sam Lake, associate director at Turley.

Reeves said: “The East Midlands region represents a significant geography for Turley. We have been increasingly active in the region over recent years, working on a diverse range of projects on behalf of clients including housebuilders, industrial and logistics developers, higher education providers and PBSA providers.

“We consider there to be an incredible amount of opportunity for employment and economic development in the region, driven forward by the East Midlands Freeport initiative, the Midlands Engine initiative and the arrival of HS2.

“Additionally, with at least one university in every city and key road, rail and air freight routes throughout the region, it is a geography teeming with potential. This expansion of our Midlands business unit with the new office space in Nottingham means we are perfectly positioned to seize on the fantastic opportunities the region has to offer.”
