Building up the team

The Arup Facade group in London is the largest team of facade consultants in the UK and we continue to add depth to the team in key areas. Over the past few months Associates Rob Buck and Stefan Marinitsch and Senior Designer Sabine Kleining have made the transition from industry into our consulting team. Sabine brings skills in profile design, Stefan in glass and special projects and Rob in moving components.

We are also delighted that Associate Director Russell Cole (profiled below) has returned from many years working for Arup as a facade consultant and environmental engineer in Asia with a rich and varied portfolio of work. They all add further depth and capability to a team of over 45 that includes a broad range of facade consultants, specialist engineers, architects, building physics specialists and material scientists. Together this team offers a unique proposition to the UK market and is a strong component in Arup's global facade group that numbers more than 300 worldwide.
