The Egypt Exploration Society is seeking Contractors, a Delivery Architect, a Project Manager, and Project Evaluator to begin its transformation.

Subject to raising the required fundraising target, the Egypt Exploration Society expects to transform its three mews properties in Bloomsbury between 2026 and 2028. The plans for the redevelopment received approval from Camden Council on 20th March 2024. See planning application 2023/2928/P available here: https://accountforms.camden.gov.uk/planning-search/
