Arup has published its annual accounts for the year April 2014 to March 2015, showing continued growth in turnover, profits and number of employees.
The firm’s annual income rose to £1.13bn as a result of strong financial growth in the UK, Asia and America. The Group generated profits before taxation and profit sharing to staff of £96.7 million. As the firm has no external shareholders, the employee-owned business was able to distribute two thirds of this profit back to staff members.
The Group also showed a 7 per cent growth in the number of employees during the year, averaging more than 12,000, operating from 92 offices in over 119 nations.
The Group strengthened its presence in the majority of its core markets, working on nearly 14,000 projects during the year. Award winning projects such as the Fulton Center (New York), The Leadenhall Building (London) and Bosco Verticale (Milan) continue to reflect Arup’s reputation for excellence around the globe.
