Global architecture and design firm HLW has announced two promotions in its London management team to support the company’s growth across the UK and Europe.
Bronte Turner, who will continue to be based in London, will now have global oversight of the speciality studios, which include strategy and discovery, sustainability, lighting and branding, and Pendrick Brown has been promoted to managing director of the London office.
Already a principal in the firm, Brown – who joined HLW in 2020 – will be responsible for business development, project delivery and talent management. He will collaborate closely with Turner and office leaders across HLW to achieve the firm’s strategic goals.
Brown (pictured) said: “It goes without saying that I’m thrilled to be promoted to managing director of HLW’s London office. HLW has a long and illustrious history, and I’m privileged to be able to play my part in its future. Working closely with Bronte and our brilliant and diverse team of design-led creatives, strategists, and technical architects, I’m committed to driving the firm forward for the benefit of both our staff and clients.”
Turner added: “HLW is committed to its growth across Europe and the ongoing success of our London office is central to the overarching business strategy. Pendrick’s promotion is key to us realising our ambitions and helping clients to achieve theirs through an unwavering focus on design excellence and commercial resilience.
“At the same time, I’m excited to be part of the HLW leadership team, remaining actively involved here in London while focused on HLW’s growth with a more global outlook.”
