We’re a major player in the property sector, but we’re not like the big corporates. And we don’t want to be.

 

At Bidwells, we are driven by our mission to provide the UK’s most sustainable and innovative property advice. For over 185 years, we have been at the forefront of real estate and have expanded our influence from our Cambridge head office across the Golden Triangle and beyond.

Sustainability is at the heart of our mission, focusing on rapidly growing sectors such as forestry, renewables, and sustainable investment. Our work in the natural capital markets positions us at the forefront of efforts to tackle the climate challenge through nature-based solutions, carbon sequestration, and environmental net gain. Equally active in the built environment we are helping clients decarbonise portfolios and bring forward sustainable development.

 

We are proud to be one of the first property consultancies to achieve B-Corp certification, reflecting our commitment to social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency.

 

Benefits

 

We have more service streams than any other property consultancy, providing a range of career paths and lots of room to progress across our national office network.

 

We offer competitive salary packages, and the chance to benefit from the success of the business through our profit share schemes. We expect our people to enjoy working hard, so we actively encourage them to enjoy their time outside of work too.
