Expanding software firm takes on space at revamped offices

Shelborn Asset Management has secured another letting at its redevelopment of South Central in Leeds.

This follows recent deals with AON, Keepmoat and Inseego UK Ltd.

Bluesmith Information Systems, a software and data engineering provider for blue chip and government clients, is taking 11,000 sq ft of recently refurbished space at the 75,338 sq ft development in Millshaw.

Bluesmith, whose clients include Yorkshire Water and Skipton Building Society, is relocating from offices in nearby Beeston.

Stuart Edmondson, director for Bluesmith Information Systems, said:  “We can’t wait to move into our new office space next year. The facilities look excellent, it has nearby transport links and ample parking, so it’s a great location for us.

“Underpinning our success story in building cloud-first modern data platforms and developing custom applications are our people, who work closely together in agile teams.

“Expanding into South Central creates an enjoyable work environment for our people, which will help us to continue to delight our customers.”

Eamon Fox, partner and head of development at the Leeds office of Knight Frank, who advised landlords Shelborn, said: “This is one of the most important and prestigious office deals in the south Leeds area this year.

“Bluesmith is a highly successful software and data engineering provider, and this move marks an important foundation for future sustainable growth.

“The comprehensive refurbishment of South Central, formerly offices for Barclays Bank, now provides some of the finest office space in Leeds. The Bluesmith deal is a resounding endorsement of what South Central has to offer.

“Significantly, this was a deal in which landlord, tenant and agent all worked together on a tri-partite basis to ensure the best possible outcome for both the deal itself and the fit-out of the offices.”

The Leeds office of CBRE is the joint marketing agent of South Central with Knight Frank.
