Peel Hunt has relocated to a new HQ in the City, which the broker’s boss said is “a modern workspace for these modern times”.
The company has relocated to around 40,000 square feet at 100 Liverpool Street, which is part of the Broadgate complex that comprises shops, restaurants and offices by Liverpool Street station.
Peel Hunt said the new office is equipped with state of the art technology, a wellbeing room, desk areas, and a 110 seat auditorium to host large client events.
It previously occupied around 20,000 square feet at Moor House, 120 London Wall, and had 3500 square feet in another building.
The government guidance remains to work from home where you can, and there have been some concerns office demand will be weaker post-Covid as some companies look to embrace remote working longer term.
Steven Fine, chief executive of Peel Hunt, said: “Our new office is a modern workspace for these modern times, that will be safe for our colleagues and clients to return to, which will allow our people to work more flexibly, collaborate more effectively, while supporting training, innovation and, importantly, our culture."
He added: “I firmly believe that London remains the greatest city in the world. But to heal the scars that the pandemic left behind, we need the lifeblood of the City - its work force - to return to the office. To breathe life back into the restaurants, cafes, bars and shops that depend on them. To reconnect with one another, face to face. To share ideas and make new connections. And, ultimately, to drive the recovery that we all want to see.”
