The Scottish commercial property consultancy's project management team now makes up around 30% of its business, and is seeing sustained growth. Morrison has previously held senior roles at CBRE and Turner & Townsend.
The team has been further strengthened following a partnership with Lambert Smith Hampton (LSH), which saw the addition of three new partners in 2025, James Paterson, Fraser Ross and Paul Lafferty.
Ryden recently worked with Kadans Science Partner on Glasgow’s purpose-built Health Innovation Hub, the completion of Lucent at 50 Bothwell Street and a number of instructions in the refurbishment of city centre office stock. Ryden also offers design capabilities and cost consultancy advice for clients.
Colin Busby, partner and head of building consultancy at Ryden, said: “The continued growth of our team reflects the increasing demand we are seeing from clients for expert technical advice, strategic project delivery and commercially focused property solutions.
“Roddy’s appointment further strengthens our project management capabilities and adds significant experience to an already highly skilled and collaborative building consultancy team. His expertise will support our growth ambitions, including opportunities across infrastructure, utilities and renewables.
“Over the past decade, we have worked hard to build a market-leading team by investing in talented people, retaining expertise and ensuring we continue to deliver a partner-led service to our clients. While current market conditions remain challenging, we continue to see strong demand for our services and remain confident in the resilience of the Scottish property sector and the opportunities ahead.”
