About Stanhope

We’re the developers and asset managers behind lots of London’s most dynamic and longstanding landmarks, from Tate Modern to Television Centre.

Walk into any of our places or buildings and you’ll find it humming with human activity. People trust Stanhope to shape places with all sorts of different, often complex functions: science hubs, opera houses, global office headquarters. We’ve been doing it for almost four decades now, with over 40 million sq ft of experience to draw on.

Our approach

Look them in the eye

Our work is fundamentally about trust and promises. If we say we’ll do something, we’ll always go above and beyond to make sure we do it.

Integrity isn’t just structural

Placemaking is teamwork. We can’t build places without building strong relationships, rooted in mutual respect and good, clear communication.

Our places are for people

Our work isn’t just cranes, steel and glass. It’s about people: making places that human beings want to use. We’re creating social value.

The environment is in crisis

We refuse to make places and buildings that impact the environment clumsily or negatively. Our B Corp status and other commitments guide us daily.

“Very few live up to Stanhope’s standard.”

Director, London Museum

Meet the team

Our 65-strong team is unusual in its breadth and depth of specialisms, capable and accountable at every step of the development journey. We live our projects from dream to reality, and try to have some fun along the way.

Stanhope Foundation

The Stanhope Foundation funds charities that help people find hope and pride through meaningful employment. We focus on helping people get into work for the first time or after a prolonged break, as well as work-related issues due to ill health.

We originate, design, deliver and manage great places that stand the test of time: sustainable, flexible places that create value.

We’re experts in the whole lifecycle of a development, from the earliest ideas through to managing a place. Our team is unique for having specialists in the room at every stage: a knowledge network that keeps us at the forefront of the market. We like co-investing in our projects to underscore alignment with our partners and goals.
