Welcoming Senior Partner, Natalie Record

We’re proud to welcome Natalie Record as our newest Senior Partner - Major Projects. With a wealth of experience in urban planning and development spanning both public and private sectors, Natalie brings invaluable expertise to our team.

Natalie's background in urban planning has seen her lead major initiatives in housing, health and climate resilience, with a focus on digital transformation within the built environment. Her career has been dedicated to integrating systems thinking, data, and innovation to enhance future homes and communities in the UK and globally.

Notably, Natalie led on Digital Planning Reform Policy at the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, and and most recently directed the Housing Innovation Programme at Connected Places Catapult, fostering collaboration across government and industry to design and deliver sustainable neighborhoods for health and climate resilience. Drawing from her entrepreneurial spirit, Natalie co-founded a PropTech SME, Walulel, operating in both London and Accra. Her academic credentials include an MSc in Sustainable Urban Development, underpinning her commitment to leveraging innovative approaches and human-centred services and technologies to deliver better outcomes for people, places and the planet.

Natalie said about her new role: 

“The delivery of future healthy homes and places that are resilient to future environmental challenges and supportive of people living happier and healthier lives requires wide-scale digital transformation at pace. 

Great progress has been made enabling data-driven decision making, but there is still a lot of cross-sector digital transformation work we can do together to improve efficiencies and outcomes for the built environment.

I’ve taken this exciting step joining the TPXimpact team because they’re at the forefront of supporting stakeholders across industries to harness human-centred design, innovative business models and data-driven processes that propel us towards a systems approach to decision making.

Working together to embed these approaches, we’ll be greater equipped as a country to make better decisions to deliver the homes and infrastructure that people need and ensure that neighbourhoods are resilient, healthy and adaptable to future challenges.”
