Office design news from Morgan Lovell
Published on 02-06-2009
Leeds is working hard to attract government officials looking to set up a new regional office in the north of England.
The Yorkshire Evening Post reported that if successful, the new government office could create up to 2,500 jobs in the city, with the Ministry of Justice alone needing a building which can accommodate 1,000 staff.
Councillor Andrew Carter, deputy leader of Leeds city council, told the newspaper that it is commonly known that a major government department is seeking to relocate out of London.
"I can confirm that Leeds is very proactively seeking to promote itself as a preferred location," he added.
Meanwhile, food manufacturer Dr Oetker recently announced plans to carry out a major office relocation of its headquarters to Leeds.
Property Executive reported that the company is to move into the Centrum building, which has been refurbished for the business, with modern office design features such as additional lighting, air conditioning, data cabling and audiovisual equipment.
