Global tech firm relocates to new Derby offices

A global leader in technology and services has relocated to new Derby offices in a deal completed by FHP Property Consultants and Innes England.

Concentrix Corporation has taken more than 6,000 sq ft at Cardinal Square, a landmark office scheme owned by Nurton Developments.

The new location, which is just a short distance from the firm’s previous base, offers a vibrant setting designed to boost creativity, collaboration and employee wellbeing.

The newly leased space has undergone a significant fit-out to create a modern and accessible working environment for Concentrix’ Derby team.

Luke Torr, the firm’s associate director for UK region real estate, said: “The central Derby location was key to our decision.

“Cardinal Square not only allows us to maintain our roots, but also provides a high-quality, modern workspace that embraces an inspiring workplace culture.

“The hidden green oasis at the heart of the scheme, complete with table tennis, pétanque and outdoor meeting pods adds immense value by promoting wellbeing and supporting our goal to attract and retain talent.

“By choosing Cardinal Square, we were able to continue to anchor our presence in Derby, offering seamless access to excellent local amenities that enhance employee lifestyle.

“As we settle into this innovative space, we look forward to fostering an environment that propels our people forward.”

David Dyas, asset director at Nurton Developments, said: “We’re delighted to welcome Concentrix to Cardinal Square to help retain them in the city.

“We’ve struck up a really good working relationship and their decision to relocate here reflects our flexible approach to securing lettings and the ongoing demand for well-situated, high-specification office space in Derby.

“Their new offices offer room for growth and reflect their global status as an innovative and forward-thinking business who is willing to invest significantly in the future of the company and its people.”

Darran Severn, director at FHP Property Consultants, which acted as joint letting agent on the deal alongside Innes England, said: “There is a definite drive from occupiers seeking better quality office space across the city of Derby.

“Within the last nine months we have let over 13,000 sq ft within Cardinal Square to local Derby businesses and we have a further 2,271 sq ft currently under offer, with space for further companies looking for room to grow.”
