The consultancy, which already has a strong presence in the East Midlands with around 40 team members, was recently appointed to Lot 3 of the new STAR Procurement Framework. Focusing on project management, delivery and commercial support, the framework is available for use by Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council, all Greater Manchester authorities, Blackpool Council, St. Helens Council, the Unity Partnership and Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM).

Mark Collins, executive director at Bentley who will lead the new Manchester office, said: "Increasing our client portfolio in the North West has always been a cornerstone of our growth strategy, so to be opening a new office in central Manchester is an important milestone achieved for the business and an exciting opportunity for the wider team.
"The appointment on the STAR Framework has meant that we will be working in the area on a more regular basis and to truly provide our clients with an industry-leading service we felt it pertinent to have a local base in which to work from.
"We see this as a major opportunity to expand our core service offering in the public sector, as well as to expand relationships with our private sector clients. At Bentley we have a deep understanding on delivering projects on time, within budget, and to the highest of standards. We are very much looking forward to extending that service even further to the North West."
