Turner & Townsend in Ireland

Ireland has become the preferred location for many global corporations to establish their EMEA operations. We have been advising (among others) Meta on their state-of the-art EMEA campus in Ballsbridge, Dublin.

As the world transforms into a digital economy, our society has never been more reliant on digital technology and resources. We are supporting our data centre clients to increase capacity and manage construction risk, so they can keep delivering 24/7.

With a large and diverse team of data centre experts located in our Ireland Hub, we bring local market insight combined with our in-depth understanding of global trends, giving our clients confidence when entering the Irish market.

The biggest challenge for Irish real estate continues to be the lack of suitable housing stock, particularly in urban areas such as inner-city Dublin. A shortage of supply has seen house prices and rents continue to rise.

We are advising several developers on numerous large-scale mixed-use projects around the city to help alleviate some of the pressure. High profile schemes include Ballymore’s St James’s Gate project and Marlet’s development at One Lime Street in the heart of the Silicon Docks.

Climate change is very much at the forefront of client thinking. We are supporting many of our clients in procuring their portfolio in alignment with their sustainability initiatives and building targets.

Major investment in transport and utilities projects are driving increased activity in this sector. We are working on the multi-billion euro MetroLink project in Dublin, linking Dublin’s city centre with the airport, as well as assisting EirGrid and Uisce Éireann (formerly Irish Water) in the expansion and upgrading of their existing systems and portfolios.
