Who we are
Founded in 1964. Re-engineered through management buy-out in 2021.
We have a team of over 200 experts across 9 offices in the UK, and are dedicated to transforming spaces through high-quality engineering and solutions that meet the needs of today while safeguarding resources for the future. We provide services throughout the UK and beyond, and pride ourselves on an enviable reputation for quality.
60+ Years of Engineering Excellence. 5 Years of Transformational Growth.
Wallace Whittle was founded in 1964 on the guiding principles of providing excellence in Engineering Consultancy, including technical skill, communication, innovation, quality of service, value and client satisfaction. In 2021, a management buy-out marked the beginning of a new chapter. Not a new business, but a renewed one.
Since then, Wallace Whittle has grown from £8m to £20m turnover, and from 80 to over 200 people, expanding our reach, strengthening our capabilities, and continuing to deliver for clients across the UK and beyond.
Throughout our evolution, these founding principles have served us and our clients well, leading to our position today as one of the UK’s leading providers of environmental building services solutions across Sustainability & MEP.
