Josh Jones, Senior Air Quality Consultant, Healthcare Sector

Providing continuous air quality support.

I attended Lancaster University for 4 years…

… where I completed my integrated master’s degree in Physical Geography. Following on from graduation, I have worked in air quality for over 6 years progressing from a Graduate to a Senior Consultant. From this, I’ve gained vast experience in providing a range of air quality services to a wide array of sectors including, residential, workplace, energy and healthcare.

I joined Hoare Lea in January this year…

… The entire Air Quality Group have been very welcoming and supportive making the integration very smooth.

I believe my goals and values align with the vision that the Air Quality Group and the wider Hoare Lea community have, focussing on human and planet conscious design and going beyond compliance.

As part of my new role, I have two very exciting key responsibilities…

… Firstly, I am the Healthcare Sector lead for the Air Quality Group providing air quality support to the wider Healthcare Sector Team and acting as the technical expert within the Air Quality Group for this sector. I am the main office air quality support and contact for Birmingham Leeds and Glasgow and I hope to highlight the importance of air quality considerations within the design of projects and help to promote our support as industry leaders.

I am excited about increasing collaborative efforts with all of Hoare Lea’s specialisms …

… providing continuous air quality support throughout the project design, working alongside the great people at Hoare Lea and increasing my technical expertise within the air quality sector. As the Air Quality Healthcare Sector lead, I believe air quality is a fundamental element for the design of all projects and can add vital value to support the design that focuses on the health and wellbeing of all users, ensuring that the surrounding environment is not adversely impacted. Crucially, aligning with our North Star.

What do I do in my spare time?…

…I like to attend music gigs and events, a lot of the time this is in Manchester, but I also enjoy visiting new cities for this as well. I’m always on the lookout for new music!
I enjoy most sports and play football every Tuesday with our Manchester office, weather permitting, I also enjoy getting out on the golf course!
