Global employee owned consulting firm Arup has seen its turnover pass the £1 billion mark for the first time as the firm released its results for the financial year ending 31 March 2013.
Arup Group Chairman said:
“I am delighted to be able to say that for the first time in its history Arup is a £1 billion firm. It is a significant milestone that comes with winning and delivering great projects such as Kunming Airport in China, the Fehmarnbelt Fixed Link between Germany and Denmark and the Second Avenue Subway in New York. While we are happy to have broken £1 billion, turnover is not a goal the firm strives to meet. We remain focused on the true metrics of success; employing fantastic people and delivering top quality projects for our clients and partners.”
The Chairman also pointed out that the Group’s unique employee ownership model and long-term strategy of diversifying across market sectors and geographies continued to show returns, helping to counteract economic difficulties in certain regions.
