An engineering consultancy has moved to a new permanent home in Birmingham after first setting up a base in the city in 2019.
Rendel is now housed at Edmund Gardens, in Edmund Street, after previously being based in serviced offices and the relocation follows a number of significant contract wins including with HS2 and Coventry's new very light rail project.
The firm said the move would support its long-term growth ambitions which include plans to create 40 jobs in the city over the next five years.
Rendel is part of the France-based Ingerop Group and has offices in London, Bristol and Sydney.

Managing director Vardy Jones said: "Our move into our new Birmingham offices is one filled with optimism. With new project wins and a growing team, a larger permanent office space was the logical next step for us as an organisation.
"Birmingham has a huge pool of local talent which made it an obvious choice as a location to establish our presence.

"Another key reason we decided to expand in the West Midlands is the region's impressive connectivity and central location, enabling us to easily serve clients across the 海角视频 and overseas.
"Since expanding back to Birmingham in 2019, we have grown from one local representative to 18 team members and we're looking forward to continuing our growth journey here."3
Cllr Ian Ward, leader of Birmingham City Council, added: "As a hub of mobility and engineering, with the West Midlands being the largest region in the 海角视频 for manufacturing, it is only fitting that Rendel is growing its presence here.
