With you and for you.
We look for solutions that work for people, communities and the environment. How we get there is by listening to you.
The first thing we do is put a partner or associate on your project. They’ll be with you from start to finish, so you’ll always have access to objective, expert advice you can trust.
Getting to know you is part of the process. We’ll make ourselves experts in your particular needs so we’re always improving the way we work – with you and for you.
Staff work at BIM Level 2, complemented by full BIM technology. Our Quality System operates in accordance with ISO 9001:2015 and our Environmental Management System is in accordance with ISO 14001:2015.
“We chose Tooley Foster to design our new Care Home. They did a terrific job for us; they were creative, responsive and really listened to us. We wanted an architect who would work in partnership to design a Nursing Home that would really work for us on a practical level as well as looking beautiful and that is exactly what we achieved with their help. Their experience and advice were invaluable and I think we received an excellent service.”
Penny Taylor, Outlook Care’s CEO
We have received numerous awards and recognitions, demonstrating our ability to design ‘Environments that work’ for both the public and private sectors, with creativity and an appreciation of our clients' needs.
Whether you’re an up and coming architect or an established professional, any practice you go to work for has to take your career development seriously. Which is why we constantly invest in training and development for our people.
As a close-knit team of partners, associates and support staff, we’re very happy and more than a bit proud to work in an inclusive, supportive place where everyone’s contribution is important.
Tooley Foster is a great practice to work for. Whether you are working from the office in Buckhurst Hill or remotely you really do get the best of both worlds.
Positioned on the edge of London and wrapped by Epping Forest on two sides, Buckhurst Hill feels like a small country town. With its winding high street full of independent shops, great places to eat and its decent sized Waitrose you do not feel like you are in London; yet in 27 mins you get Liverpool Street on the Central Line (and that is against the commuters).
We attract a diverse group of employees from all over London, Essex and beyond, all at different stages of their careers. Young graduates from inner London mix with colleagues who have chosen to make this part of outer London their home. This makes for a great mix of people and a very constructive and professional atmosphere.
There is little of the politics that can occur in central London offices; and working with us means you will get your evenings and weekends back. Unless schedules are particularly tight, we have enough resources to ensure set hours tend to be the ones people work. You can work flexibly around core hours, and we can offer both home and office based working.
In recognition of the value we place on our staff and their continued training and development, we have held Investors in People status since May 2005; achieving their Silver Standard in 2017. We continue to be an accredited Investors in People organisation and are an Equal Opportunities Employer.
We offer a professional career in a well-supported and friendly work environment. You will have the opportunity for personal development within the company as well as training to support your individual professional development needs.
We welcome applications from a wide range of backgrounds; selecting candidates for interview based on skills, qualifications and experience.
