DLA Architecture has promoted Iain Jones to become Associate Director in its Leeds office.
Iain, who sits on the CIAT national project taskforce reviewing and commenting on proposed new legislation, has been with DLA for more than 18 years. He is part of the team delivering technical excellence across high-profile projects that have included Trinity Walk in Wakefield, Headingley Stadium, Vanguarde in York, Central Square Leeds, and more recently Oak House in Leeds.
The company has also promoted Mitesh Dabasia to become Associate in its London office. Mitesh joined the DLA in 2015 and has since played a vital role in the success of the commercial office team, particularly within complex retrofit projects.
Chris Levett, Group Board Director and Head of the London studio at DLA Architecture, said: “Iain has shown incredible loyalty to the practice and dedication to delivering exceptional architectural solutions for our clients.
“As a practice we are focussed on harnessing the talent and rewarding our next generation of creative people, maintaining our reputation as one of the UK’s leading architectural consultants at the forefront of new regulations following the Building Safety Act in 2022.”
“These well-earned promotions are a key part of our future success with each one bringing a strong skill set that will help shape the future of the company in years to come.”
