Company Description

All companies have been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. It’s quickly changed the way we work, social distancing is impacting recruiting in a myriad of ways, remote working is the new norm, and some of our client projects have been negatively affected whilst others less so.

However, Turner & Townsend have already seen that our China business has quickly started to recover from the chaos caused by the pandemic, and we will no doubt also see a similar upturn in business once things settle in Europe. We are preparing for this by continuing to talk to candidates who have the background and skills that are in line with our business.

We remain committed to attracting top talent to apply and position themselves with us for when the upturn begins. We will review your CV and pipeline relevant candidates so that when new opportunities arise we will get in touch with you and consider you for relevant projects.

Candidates who have a strong background in Data Centres, Life Sciences, Industrial and Manufacturing coupled with a relevant skill set and a track record of successful project delivery will be the first to be considered for new vacancies as they arise.
