PJA’s aim is to create better places through great design. The development planning company that integrates transport planning, engineering and placemaking says its strength lies with its team of staff, who have been hired for their unique skills and talents.

It employs a wide range of people from diverse disciplines and backgrounds. Senior staff share a common desire to get the job done without the encumbrances often associated with large multidisciplinary practices. More junior employees thrive on the fast-paced environment and the variety of projects they are able to get involved with.

Perks of joining the company include hybrid working, great modern accessible offices, a brilliant benefits package and competitive salary, approved training schemes and development opportunities that allow staff to progress at pace and in a direction that suits them.

“But you also get to be the innovators, the problem solvers, the creators and, above all else, part of our very approachable and supportive human team with lives outside work, senses of humour and strong core values,” says the company.

Phil Jones Associates started in a spare bedroom in 2003. Now PJA has more than 100 people working across eight offices in the UK and Australia. Staff share a genuine passion for what they do and work hard to ensure that the ethos of good design and quality advice runs through all aspects of the business.
