Gleeds moves out of historic offices
Nottingham-based property and construction consultancy Gleeds has moved out of its historic Wilford premises and to new offices at Apex Business Park.
The new office is next to the business’s existing satellite operation at the Ruddington Lane site. The company will now occupy 20,000 sq ft of office space across the two buildings, housing 210 staff.
Wilford House is a detached Grade II Listed Period three storey building constructed in the mid to late 1800s and converted to office use in the mid 1980s.
Anthony Cork, director for Gleeds in Nottingham said of the move: “Gleeds has been searching for a suitable home for our Nottingham business for some time and by acquiring the building at Apex we are delighted to have been able to bring our teams back together at one location. FHP, the property manager, has supported us in acquiring the additional space in order to undertake an extensive refurbishment of both premises and enabled us to provide a state-of-the-art workspace for our staff, with excellent links to the city centre.”
“We have seen consistent growth across our project management and asset management arms in recent years, providing advice for an increasing number of clients in the UK and abroad from our East Midlands base. It is this sustained success which has led to our seeking new premises and we fully intend to continue our expansion going forward,” Cork added.
The business is currently appointed to city centre projects worth over £100m, including the massive regeneration of the Boots Island site, the City Buildings redevelopment for Shoby Properties, Nottingham College’s new College City Hub, and Miller Birch’s Guildhall Place in Nottingham city centre.
