鈥淲e have found that the ethos of a partnership is an important part of the successful development of professionals, this is present across the whole of Arcadis where we are able to provide increased opportunities for outstanding members of the company.
鈥淲e retained the partnership because it helps us attract and develop great professionals and I am pleased to welcome these eighteen outstanding members of the company into the partnership and look forward to the contribution that their knowledge, experience and expertise will continue to have in our future success.鈥�
