Rider Levett Bucknall

Our business

Rider Levett Bucknall is a global, independent property and construction consultancy with over 2,500 people operating from more than 100 offices. We provide our clients with property and construction consultancy advice (QS/BS/PM/Advisory) at all stages of the property life cycle. We work throughout the Americas, Asia, EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa) and Oceania.

This international reach enables the firm to combine global best practice with local insight, utilising the latest cost data and innovations to deliver property solutions across a number of sectors. Our reputation for providing consistently high levels of consultancy services to our clients rests entirely on our ability to recruit and develop the highest calibre staff.

Our culture

Our business is owned by the people who work for us. This makes us different and is a key factor in our success. Our award-winning training academy is an extensive and comprehensive training and development programme designed to help everyone reach their full potential. As part of this drive for personal development, Rider Levett Bucknall hosts a twice yearly ‘Chairman’s Graduate Challenge Day’ to channel new ideas and fresh perspectives from non-management staff into to the main board of directors. We appreciate that people have a life outside of work and therefore adopt a flexible approach to working.

Our commitment to staff development, company culture and pay and benefits was recognised when we were ranked top in the Daily Telegraph-sponsored CRF’s ‘Britain’s
Top Employers 2011’ list for the third year running. We were also ranked in the Sunday Times 100 ‘Best Companies to Work for 2011’ and have achieved ‘Investors in People’ ‘Champion’ status, which means that we are one of a few organisations selected to share best practice with other businesses.

Teamwork is at the heart of our business and there is a firm at all levels to ensure that Rider Levett Bucknall remains a great place to work.
