New management firm for AMP technology centre
A new managing and letting agent has been appointed to the AMP Technology Centre in Rotherham following Sheffield City Region Combined Authority’s acquisition of the asset earlier in the year.
The AMP Technology Centre comprises of 80,000 sq ft of multi-tenanted office and workshop space aimed at the advanced manufacturing and engineering sectors, along with state-of-the-art meeting rooms and conference facilities.
Creative Space, which formed in 2005, has been contracted for five years following a competitive tender process. The company previously managed the facility for Homes England and successfully grew average occupancy to 90% securing high profile occupiers such as MetLase, a joint venture between Rolls-Royce and Unipart. More than 300 people now work at the AMP Technology Centre.
Sir Nigel Knowles, chair of the Sheffield City Region Local Enterprise Partnership, said: “We are pleased to appoint Creative Space Management as managing and letting agents for this integral facility, at the heart of the Advanced Manufacturing Innovation District and the emerging Global Innovation Corridor.”
Paul Taylor, from Creative Space Management, added: “We are excited to be playing a pivotal role in the next chapter of this important strategic asset. We are confident that our specialist sector knowledge and innovative approach to a fast-changing market will enable us to build on our previous success, and the already strong reputation of the Advanced Manufacturing Park.”
