Global office impacts

With our growth of over 22,000 people working across 63 countries, we’ve seen our office portfolio increase to 247 offices spanning across 46,000 m2 of office space.

We’ve seen significant reductions in our Scope 1 and 2 emissions that are primarily associated with the impacts of our offices. The primary driver of this comes from achieving our 2025 target of 100% renewable energy, which was achieved for the first time this year.

While we have seen progress towards our short-term target in 2030, energy efficiency management continues to be a key area of focus when continuing to reduce our Scope 1 and 2 emissions. Better energy efficiency management reduces the need for more renewable energy infrastructure and land use requirements and reduces the demand on energy grids.

In 2025 we established our baseline for Turner & Townsend’s participation in a CBRE Group-level Sustainable Office Program. This embeds sustainability into the design and operations of corporate offices, helping to achieve our goal of Net Zero emissions by 2040, and influence behavioral change through tangible action and self-assessment. The program is implemented through a global, consistent platform for measuring and advancing sustainability performance in our offices. This includes energy management, sustainability certification and renewable energy procurement. It sets corporate standards for office design and operations while defining and encouraging showcase practices.

Participation in the Sustainable Office Program is expected for offices greater than 10,000 square feet (929 square meters). All other offices are encouraged to adopt the practices and sustainability improvement processes, through the guidance and self-scoring approach that is available to all. The impacts and details from the Program launch and meaningful impacts will be captured in 2026 financial year reporting.

In all regions we have seen an increase in kWh consumption, which aligns with our continued expansion. However, globally, our kWh/m2 has reduced by around 35% year-on-year, with greater increases in efficiency in areas such as Europe, which has seen a halving of energy use year-on-year. GHG impacts from office operations reduced by 15%, 22% and 76% year-on-year across our Americas, APAC and EMEA regions respectively.

“Guided by Turner & Townsend's vision to become a low‑carbon business, we are embedding sustainability at the core of how we operate, innovate, and grow. Through our Net Zero commitment, we aim to lead by example and enable our clients to accelerate their own transition to a more sustainable future.”

GHG OVERVIEW

Office impacts: EMS

By the end of 2025, 65 of our global offices were certified to the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System (EMS) standard, an increase of 25 sites compared with the previous year. This continued expansion demonstrates our commitment to strengthening environmental governance and embedding consistent, robust management practices across our global operations.

Our global EMS performance is monitored through scheduled internal audits, Balance Scorecard reporting, and ongoing review of key environmental indicators. These mechanisms ensure transparency, drive continual improvement, and support alignment with our sustainability objectives across all regions.
