The Brookbanks Difference / News / Our Technical & Engineering Team

Staying ahead of the curve with development infrastructure design services!

Over the past year we have welcomed a number of new people to our team that have strengthened our already experienced Technical and Engineering Team.

We continue to support our clients with a full complement of technical design and advice services. Our team works collaboratively across a wide range of project areas from sensitive small-scale development schemes to our appointment as the Lead Designer for the A45 Interchange scheme near Coventry that will unlock land for the recently consented Eastern Green development site.

We are problem solvers at heart and our team loves nothing more than overcoming engineering challenges by providing the right value driven solution!

Please get in touch to find out how we can assist with your next development opportunity.

Our March 2026 Newsletter

March 31, 2026

Welcome to our March 2026 newsletter. In this issue, we’ll tell you more about how we help SMEs prioritise what matters, avoid the common financial traps, and get projects moving, backed by our experienced team who have real housebuilding experience. We’re looking back on our March webinar, where Jack Kenny and Paul Rushmer gave an overview of how to optimise mechanical and electrical designs specifically for high-risk buildings. Plus, we’ll highlight this month’s podcasts! The first explored where structural engineering and building services design overlap, and why good coordination is so important to project delivery. In episode two, Hannah Simpson, Fran Walker, and Isabelle Latuszka spoke about their early-career experiences and how diverse backgrounds add real value to projects. Below, you’ll also get to hear about some exciting awards news and an event we’re co-hosting with the LPDF in Manchester.
