Lichfields announces two new appointments at its Reading office

Lichfields, the Thames Valley planning and development firm, has proudly announced two new hires.

Florence Leung and Caitlin Attrill join the office as planners and will work out of the company's Apex Plaza headquarters near Reading train station. Working closely on large public and private sector projects, both will get assistance as part of their career development goals through Lichfields' graduate programme and the Royal Town Planning Institute mentorship.

Lichfields, which employs more than 230 people, is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year and aims to exceed the £25million revenue mark by the end of 2022.

Florence worked as a journalist in Hong Kong before completing her MSc in Urban and Regional Planning at the University of Sheffield this summer. Caitlin will work part-time while attending the University of Reading and studying for her MSc in Spatial Planning and Development.

Senior Director and Head of the Thames Valley office Daniel Lampard said this about the appointments: "We are experiencing strong growth and success, working on a range of exciting projects across the Thames Valley, and are pleased to be expanding the team in response to this."

"Florence and Caitlin will be great additions to our team, bringing more depth to our services as our workload increases off the back of an expanding portfolio of work."
