Join our team
at Arc Partnership.

Creating a world everyone deserves by delivering real value together for a healthy, prosperous, green future.

This is the mission that binds our diverse, dedicated team together. Created as a joint venture between Nottinghamshire County Council and SCAPE, our team are committed to exemplifying best practice in collaborative service delivery. Our vision is to be leaders in collaborative working, providing cost-effective solutions which deliver an inclusive and engaging experience for our clients and the communities we serve.

Working across our key services - pre-construction, design and consultancy, construction, regeneration and major projects, risk management, and responsive repairs and emergency services - we support our public sector clients to create safe, sustainable and significant land and property portfolios that deliver social value for the local community.

We're delighted to have partnerships with Nottingham Trent University (NTU) and the University of Nottingham focused on developing career pathways for growing and retaining local talent across the construction sector. We welcome the opportunity to share insights and opportunities of the skills needed by the future workforce with our local universities and their students and we’re proud that our strategic partnership with NTU has been shortlisted for Graduate Programme of the Year at the Construction News Workforce Awards 2023. Learn more about working with Arc Partnership from two of our recent graduates, Mollie Richardson and Samuel Tanis.
