A construction and physical-asset consultancy founded in Glasgow in 1919, with more than 2,600 people and about 20 offices across the UK and Jersey.
Currie & Brown helps clients plan, cost and deliver construction and infrastructure projects. It has four service areas: advisory services, building surveying, cost management and quantity surveying, and project and programme management. It works in healthcare, education, transport, retail, commercial property, energy, defence, rail, roads, life sciences and the public sector, among others. A November 2025 company news item mentions clients in Liverpool such as Peel Ports, Liverpool John Moores University and the University of Liverpool.
The firm was founded in Glasgow in 1919 and now has more than 70 offices and over 2,600 people worldwide. It describes its aim as "bringing clarity and control to complex construction and infrastructure projects". Its values guide how it works and makes decisions, though the page we read does not list them. Its careers pages call it an independent business that empowers staff to make quick, agile decisions, with a commitment to excellence, a digital approach and equality, diversity and inclusion. It is part of a group called Sidara.
The UK offices page lists Belfast, Birmingham, Bristol, Cambridge, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Exeter, Glasgow, Haywards Heath, Leeds, Liverpool, London, Manchester, Milton Keynes, Norwich, Plymouth, Southampton, Stockton-on-Tees and Truro, plus St Helier in Jersey. The Liverpool office opened in late 2025 as part of expansion across the Midlands and the North of England, after a Stockton-on-Tees opening and a bigger Birmingham office. The firm said graduates from Liverpool John Moores University had already joined the new team.
The firm says its people work "as one team", inside the company and with clients, and that it values continuous learning and improvement. Its careers page mentions career development, mentoring and international mobility. Kieran McManamon, regional managing director for England and Wales, says clients want advisers who understand both global issues and local conditions. These are the company's own claims.
Roles include quantity surveyors and cost consultants, project and programme managers, building surveyors, advisers, commercial managers and specialists in areas such as infrastructure, rail, data centres and mechanical and electrical costs, based on its job listings. It suits people who like working with numbers, contracts and construction programmes and who want to be based in a regional city.
