Consultant Rider Levett Bucknall鈥檚 UK division has unveiled plans to almost double revenue and staff within five years to become a circa 拢70m-turnover, 600-strong business.
The division鈥檚 chairman Ann Bentley told 黑洞社区 the firm has completed a restructure 鈥 including splitting into three operating divisions and extending the UK board 鈥 to 鈥渆nable ambitious expansion鈥.
Rider Levett Bucknall鈥檚 (RLB) UK division turned over around 拢40m and employed 鈥渏ust under鈥 400 people in the financial year to 30 April 2014, Bentley said.
RLB UK has split into three operating divisions focussed on the Midlands and North; London and South and major corporate occupiers, with the latter covering key accounts, frameworks and international work.
The three divisions will report into an enlarged UK board of seven rather than five, which includes Bentley and RLB UK chief executive Lance Taylor.
RLB has promoted Andrew Reynolds and Dean Sheehy (pictured) to join the UK board as director of the major corporate occupiers division and director of the Midlands and North division respectively, while Tony Catchpole鈥檚 board role has been extended from London managing partner to director of the London and South division.

RLB is an alliance of three independent companies based out of the UK, Hong Kong and Australia which together employ over 3,500 people across more than 120 global offices.
