Who We Are

At Scotch Partners, we want to make a positive impact - whether that’s for our people, clients, or those who occupy the buildings we deliver.

We are a London based design consultancy offering expertise in building services engineering, sustainability, energy, and building acoustics. We work across a broad range of built environment projects from commercial office refurbishments in listed buildings to new build science parks, and everything in between.

Delivering sustainable and efficient designs for our clients is at the core of what we do, creating the highest quality buildings and internal environments. This is brought to life by our combined experience, creative problem-solving, collaborative spirit, and can-do attitude; this philosophy is integral to our service.

Our team is our most valuable asset and the true cornerstone of Scotch, and we pride ourselves on creating a team culture built on trust, respect, and enjoyment.

We’re a social bunch and enjoy spending time together both in and out of office. We have a busy social calendar from sports and team activities, to crafts and music. We’re especially proud of our house band, Paper Jam, who are always on the look out for new talent!
