DWF confirms move to MEN’s former HQ

LAW firm DWF has finally agreed its deal to take over the 82,995 sq ft of space at Spinningfields’ 2 Hardman Square building which was vacated by MEN Media’s new owners Trinity Mirror last month.

The Manchester-based firm said that it will begin moving staff into the four floors of available space over three separate weekends, beginning on November 27.

“This strategic investment not only facilitates our future growth plans but enables us to provide a cutting-edge working environment for our people and clients,” said the firm’s executive partner for Manchester, David Pickering.

“The new premises consolidates our Manchester operation into one location and will have three operational floors and an additional floor dedicated to a new ‘client suite’.

“All our 460 staff in Manchester are immensely proud of the new premises and can’t wait to move into them from the end of November.”

In the year to April 30, DWF posted a 51% increase in net profit to £8.7m and a 17% rise in turnover to £71.5m.
