Engineering consultancy, Waterman Group has taken new office premises in the heart of Birmingham’s central business district.
The company has taken 4,642 sq ft of grade A office space on the fifth floor of One Cornwall Street in the city centre on a 10 year lease. DTZ and Savills acted on behalf of the landlord, clients of AXA Real Estate to agree the deal.
One Cornwall Street occupies a central position within the Colmore Business District, Birmingham’s business and professional quarter. The building underwent refurbishment in 2012 and includes raised floors, air conditioning and LG7 lighting.
Andrew Berry, Associate Director in DTZ’s Office agency team commented: “One Cornwall Street continues to offer flexible office space within an unrivalled location and we are delighted to welcome Waterman Group.”
Waterman Group is a multi-disciplinary consultancy providing sustainable solutions for the property, infrastructure, environment and energy markets. The company has 13 regional offices across the UK and were previously based at serviced office accommodation at Colmore Plaza.
Graham Hiscocks from Waterman Group commented on the move: “As part of our plans to develop our business within Birmingham and the West Midlands, we required larger premises in a central location. One Cornwall Street offers us the high quality space we have been looking for, with room to support our anticipated growth. We are excited about the move to our new office.”
