David Symonds Associates, a leading independent civil and
structural engineering practice in the Midlands, is reaping the
benefits of having its employees all on one floor after relocating
its headquarters to SEGRO's King's Norton Business Park in
Birmingham.
The company has moved from three storey premises in Kings Heath,
where it was based for the past 20 years, to a one-level 1,650 sq
ft.site in Imperial Court on a 10 year lease.
Jane Leedham, leasing manager for SEGRO, said: "We are pleased
to welcome David Symonds Associates to the King's Norton Business
Centre. This bigger space will provide them with the opportunity to
expand their client base and services."
Jonathan Symonds, partner at David Symonds Associates, said:
"Being on three floors caused a lack of communication between
employees so a bigger working space, that is on one level, has
encouraged the team to work together more closely and
efficiently.
"By moving our headquarters only a couple of miles down the
road, there was minimal upheaval for our employees and, for many of
our clients, it means we're closer to them too."
Kings Norton Business Centre is the premier Business Centre in
south Birmingham, meeting the business space needs of a diverse
range of companies. Located on a 24.3 hectare (60 acre) site, its
local management team is able to cater for the needs of the
occupiers from its on-site regional office. The estate is
maintained on a structured basis providing a first class business
and working environment, with tenants benefiting from 24-hour
mobile security, CCTV coverage and consequential low crime
rates.
