Arup began as an engineering firm, intending to become a place where engineers could be given the freedom and authority to pursue truly creative solutions. Over seven decades later, we’re still renowned for the quality, tenacity and creativity of our engineers, on projects as varied and challenging as High Speed 2, The Sagrada Familia and the Zhuhai bridge.

Our growing, 250 strong-team, also work on technical specialist architecture like data-centres, sports venues and cultural buildings, working hand in hand with our colleagues across Arup.
