The office in Austin, Texas, joins existing locations in Atlanta, Charlotte, Los Angeles, Chicago, Nashville, New York and San Francisco.
The growth is intended to enable Gleeds to provide enhanced coverage to hospitality, commercial, mixed-use, higher education and industrial clients throughout Texas and beyond. It will also provide a platform from which to support its energy clients in this key region.聽
Chris Soffe, CEO of Gleeds Americas, said: 鈥淜nown as the 鈥榣one star state鈥� the $1.6 trillion economy in Texas is one of the strongest in the US, second only to California, so it was a natural step for us to extend our offering here.鈥�
Richard Steer, Chairman of Gleeds Worldwide, added: 鈥淥ver 100 of the country鈥檚 top companies call Texas home and we鈥檝e built fantastic relationships with many of them, so we鈥檙e confident that this will be a successful move for Gleeds. This is a really exciting time for the region and we intend to maximise the opportunity it presents.鈥�
The Austin office will be headed up by directors Ruben Rodriguez and Chris Williams. 聽
