We’re an award-winning design consultancy with an outstanding reputation for quality and innovation. A people-focused, problem-solving organisation, our agility and independence mean that we can act fast to provide appropriate solutions for our clients.

Since 1951, when Dr E W H Gifford OBE set up his private practice, right through to the introduction of post-tensioned concrete, wind farms and the development of applications for fibre-reinforced plastics, Gifford has had a strong track record of invention and innovation, and translating ideas into commercial reality.

With over 700 staff worldwide and eight UK offices, we go from strength to strength. This is an exciting period of growth for us - and you can be part of it.
