Energy supplier invests in new 90,000 sq ft HQ

A business energy supplier is set to create a new headquarters in Northamptonshire.

Opus Energy, which supplies gas and electricity to 300,000 businesses across the UK and employs 850 people in the town, is consolidating its three existing offices in Northampton to create a single 90,000 sq ft HQ at John Dryden House, which is also in the town.

The deal was brokered by LSH.

The refurbishment of John Dryden House is expected to be completed in December, after which the company will transfer its staff from its existing offices at Westbury Court, Moulton Park; Francis Crick House, Moulton Park; and Regent Pavillion, Royal Pavillions.

Opus Energy chief operating officer Nikki Flanders said: “The move to John Dryden House signifies a milestone in Opus Energy’s history. Our teams are a point of pride and we’re delighted to be providing our employees with state of the art facilities and a workspace they can be proud to work in. We are excited to have all employees in one place and see the benefits in action.”

Ian Leather, head of office agency at LSH Northampton, said: “It’s been fantastic to be involved with Opus Energy’s growth, from finding its first office when it was a small start-up to now supporting it as it acquires a 90,000 sq ft premises,” said Ian.

“It has never wavered in its commitment to having its headquarters in Northampton and we’ve been able to help the company as it has expanded over the past 15 years to now being the sixth largest business energy supplier in the country.”
