The Prime Minister, David Cameron, today visited The Phoenix Partnership’s (TPP's) new £20 million head office to see first-hand the growth of one of the most successful companies in Yorkshire.
During the site visit the Prime Minister spoke primarily about Yorkshire’s success over recent years and balancing the economy across the UK. The new office build will create 400 new jobs, drawing talented graduates into the region.
Currently employing circa 200 staff, TPP is expanding its operations over the next three years and expects to recruit new staff to bring its team up to 650.
On the site of a former car showroom in Horsforth, 500 metres from TPP’s existing office, the new headquarters office development regenerates an existing brownfield site.
The development will be 87,727sq.ft. over four storeys, providing up to 650 workstations, 18 formal meeting rooms, a number of informal meeting rooms, a dining area to cater for up to 320 staff members at one time, 332 car-parking spaces.
Silcock Leedham are part of Bowman Riley Architects team working on the new head offices to meet the Client’s design brief with a mix of traditional mill building design with a contemporary extension.
The project is due for completion late summer / autumn 2015.
