Company Profile

Watkin Jones has evolved considerably in the last decade, moving from being a construction contractor into the development of purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) and then into the wider Build to Rent (BtR) sector. Being a smaller player and having a capital-light model gives the company a very exciting growth profile, with revenues likely to increase by 83% in the next three years, according to our forecasts.
