Stantec opens new Belfast office to support continued success

Stantec, a global leader in sustainable engineering, architecture, and environmental consulting, has opened its new Belfast office to support an increasing number of colleagues and its market expansion across Northern Ireland.

In the city’s culturally renowned Cathedral Quarter, the Company’s Belfast office is the new workplace for up to 60 Stantec colleagues. Leading commercial property agent CBRE NI has supported Stantec with the move. The 25 Talbot Street space follows multiple project and framework wins in the water industry for Stantec. The interdisciplinary firm is now gearing up to leverage cross-sector opportunities in the community development, energy, and transport sectors. 

With more than 450 offices around the world, Stantec provides a range of sustainable planning, design, and engineering services for clients across the built environment. From nature-based solutions that help reduce pressure on wastewater networks and energy recovery projects, to sustainable transport, and active travel schemes, the company is supporting communities in becoming more resilient.

Stantec is working with Northern Ireland Water (NIW) on its Major Projects Partnership Framework as part of the ‘One Team’, supporting the upgrade of vital Wastewater Treatment Works projects. The firm was recently appointed to the NIW’s IF182 Professional Services Framework. On this, Stantec is positioned to provide a range of interdisciplinary support services over the next four to eight years.

Stantec’s new Belfast office has been designed with collaboration and workplace wellbeing in mind, featuring a number of focus areas and open spaces to support a positive hybrid working model. The Cathedral Quarter was chosen by Stantec due to its accessible location and proximity to local amenities and public transport networks.

“We know that colleagues in Belfast love working on influential major projects that have a meaningful and visible impact on their own communities,” said Mark Carlisle, regional director for Ireland and Northern Ireland. “We needed a space that would allow us to expand but would also appeal to the next generation of designers, planners, environmental consultants, and engineers. Our new Talbot Street office gives us the perfect opportunity to do this as we support Northern Ireland Water while diversifying our offering across the region.”

“This really is a beautiful new space and reflects our aspirational outlook in Northern Ireland. As we continue to expand our market presence and influence, we’re looking forward to hosting our partners and clients in the cultural heart of Belfast,” added Simon Dickson, Stantec’s operations director and office lead for the Belfast office.

David Wright, director at CBRE NI added: “We’re pleased to have supported Stantec in securing its new Belfast office. This modern workspace aligns with Stantec’s vision of fostering collaboration and innovation, and it also reflects the company’s commitment to the Northern Ireland market.

“The building’s location not only offers excellent access to local amenities and public transport, but also positions Stantec at the heart of Belfast’s dynamic business community. As demand within the office space sector continues to rise and more and more companies encourage their staff to return to the office, it is wonderful to see Stantec establish a new base in Belfast. We look forward to seeing Stantec thrive in this fresh space and continue making a positive impact across the region.”
