New serviced office hub coming to Birmingham

A new serviced office hub is coming to Birmingham's business district.

Leeds-based workspace provider Gilbanks has announced plans to create a 22,000 sq ft hub in the Five St Philips building off Colmore Row after signing a 15-year deal.

It will be the company's fourth operation when it opens in September, joining two sites in Manchester and another in Leeds.

Planned facilities include changing rooms, an event suite overlooking Birmingham Cathedral and a club lounge reception.

Will Hawking, sector lead at landlord Royal London Asset Management Property, said: "We are committed to delivering best-in-class, sustainable workspace across the UK so it is important for us to work with partners who share that outlook.

"The partnership with Gilbanks raises the bar and sets a new blueprint for multi-let office buildings."

Property agencies CBRE, Knight Frank and Savills acted on the deal.
