THE firm of architects behind some of Scotland’s most impressive new building projects, including Edinburgh BioQuarter and the new Boroughmuir High School, has set out its blueprint for the future with its staff as the beneficiaries. Allan Murray Architects (AMA) has entered into an employee ownership trust (EOT), transferring all its shares to it and splitting an agreed share of profits between employees, regardless of their position. The firm, founded in 1992, has perhaps played a bigger role in Edinburgh’s recent architectural renaissance than any other single firm. Directors Conor Pittman and Kenny McNally, will continue to lead the practice with an experienced team, enabling Murray to fully retire, after being supported through the journey into an EOT by Ownership Associates.
