Scottish Provident Building has signed two new tenants – foreign and direct investment and technology companies, High Roads and Push Technology.
A further two tenants, Gavin & Doherty Geosolutions and Repstor, are also renting more space as their businesses enjoy increased growth.
With a resurgence in traditional office space and the ongoing renovations of Merchant Square and Bedford Square, the Scottish Provident Building offers a managed serviced office. At 97 per cent occupancy, Donna Linehan, Head of Sales and Customers Services said that the Grade A listed building is much more than just serviced office space.
“Between 2009 and 2018, we underwent an extensive refurbishment programme and today we have seven floors housing some 60 companies from all sectors – technology, professional services, creative industries and others.
“We are always very excited to see new clients but I get a real buzz out of seeing tenants grow within the building, and sometimes they do leave like Baker McKenzie to their own bespoke building,” she said.
She said the city centre location, right beside the City Hall, is always a major pull for tenants.
“We are only too delighted to see Repstor on the move and taking both the sixth and seventh floors as it is a sure sign of growth for this business,” she added.
Alan McMillen is CEO of Repstor, an ECM software and matter management specialist, which has been in the Scottish Provident Building for over eighteen months.
“We have had another phenomenal year and our recruitment initiatives have drawn some enviable talent, so it’s time to expand to a bigger space,” he added.
William Brown is Belfast Lead from Gavin & Doherty Geosolutions, a specialist geotechnical engineering consultancy who have been in the Scottish Provident Building since early 2016.
“This latest transition represents our second internal move as we continue to improve our regional offering of specialist consultancy services into the UK and Irish markets. We are delighted to continue our residency in these unique offices in the heart of Belfast,” he added.
