Berkeley Group plc is a leading residential property developer and regenerative urbanisation specialist operating primarily in London and the South East of England. Since its founding in 1976 by Anthony “Tony” Pidgley, the company has established a reputation for high-quality design, innovative architecture and sustainable community development. Listed on the London Stock Exchange in 1988, Berkeley Group has delivered tens of thousands of homes through award-winning projects that blend residential, commercial and public spaces.
The company’s core activities encompass land acquisition, master-planning, construction and ongoing property management. Berkeley Group’s landmark schemes include major mixed-use developments such as Royal Arsenal Riverside in Greenwich, Kidbrooke Village in southeast London and Southbank Place near Waterloo. Each development typically features a mix of apartments and townhouses, complemented by green spaces, retail amenities and social infrastructure such as schools and health centres.
In addition to its development arm, Berkeley Group offers a range of after-sales and property services through its Berkeley First division, providing maintenance, insurance and customer care throughout the lifecycle of its communities. The group places strong emphasis on sustainable design, energy efficiency and social value, pursuing ambitious targets in carbon reduction and biodiversity enhancement across all projects.
Leadership at Berkeley Group transitioned in April 2023 when Trudi Elliott, formerly Chief Financial Officer, succeeded Tony Pidgley as Chief Executive Officer. The board blends industry expertise with governance best practice, steering the group’s strategy to respond to evolving market demands, housing shortages and regulatory changes. With a track record spanning nearly five decades, Berkeley Group remains focused on delivering lasting urban neighbourhoods that integrate quality homes, public realm improvements and long-term community benefit.
