Vehicle rental business establishes hub for its technology team

Vehicle and plant hire business, Nexus, has unveiled a new business hub in central Leeds.

Nexus has established the space to support the company’s business-wide growth.

This expansion includes the recent appointments of a new chief operating officer and chief revenue officer, as well as the launch of a rebrand.

The hub is specifically designed to house the firm’s growing technology team. It is in West Village on Wellington Street and will provide the team with access to high quality technology and collaboration opportunities.

West Village was developed by Bruntwood SciTech. The location has undergone a £20m redevelopment, with the aim of being a hotspot for knowledge-based businesses.

Hayley Berry, chief people officer at Nexus, said: “We’re already leading the industry with our technology, and the new hub underscores our commitment to investing in and developing our people.

“This additional location places us in the centre of Leeds’s thriving tech community, while still supporting our customers and partners nationwide.”

“The hub will pay a key role in supporting our existing team by providing access to industry events and networking opportunities, whilst also allowing us to welcome new talent as the business continues to grow.

“A positive working environment is more than just an office, it’s about creating a space where innovation can flourish. This is the first step in an extended journey of development and investment in our people.”
