Blackhall & Powis officially began in May 2017 with just two employees.

We had an ambitious vision from the start and focused the early days on building a strong foundation.

Within a year we expanded to add the GIS part of the business, doubling our team to a total of four. But this initial phase set the trajectory for our subsequent growth. A significant milestone in our expansion was moving into our first Glasgow office in 2019, and by 2023 we had established an office in England solidifying our presence in the UK.

In recent years, we’ve seen substantial financial growth. For instance, in the financial year ending May 2024, we were on track to turnover approximately £5.8 million, exceeding our initial target by over £1 million. This financial success is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team, which at that time had grown to include 58 of the most capable and talented individuals. We’re now at more than 75 and continuing to bring on board new talent and expertise.

Throughout these years, our core objective hasn’t changed. We have consistently aimed to support the development and maintenance of a more sustainable infrastructure system. This continues to drive our business strategy and have been integral to our success.

Looking ahead, we have ambitious plans to scale the business group to £40 million in the next ten years. This growth will open up numerous exciting career development opportunities for our team. Because at the heart of the B&P are brilliant, talented people who love what they do, relish a challenge and deliver excellent work.

Our commitment to innovation and excellence has been unwavering, and we’ve made significant investments in finance and property management systems to support our growth. The introduction of new roles, such as Country Managers, will further enhance our service delivery and position us for continued success in various sectors.

The past eight years have been a period of significant growth and development for our business. We have expanded our team, increased our financial performance, and laid a strong foundation for future success.

As we continue to grow, we remain committed to our core objectives and to creating shared and lasting value for all our clients and stakeholders.
