Consultancy
As your independent consultant, I will stop your business from making expensive, long-term property mistakes in the fast-moving flex office market. Drawing on extensive experience and expertise, this service offers commercially driven advice for occupiers, operators and investors on how to choose, compare and negotiate flexible workspaces that suit their business needs and support their business goals.
Businesses are supported in:
- Aligning their workplace strategy with their operational requirements, growth strategy and company culture.
- Comparing flex office offers and striping back headline pricing to expose hidden costs and potential problems.
- Auditing existing agreements and terms to identify potential risks, liabilities and inflexibility.
- Negotiating and communicating with operators and landlords to build honest, working relationships.
As a result, businesses are empowered to get on with what they do best in a future-proofed workspace tailored to their unique needs.
Flex Office Search Advisory Negotiator
The Flex Office Search Advisory Negotiator service is for organisations who are seeking help with sourcing, evaluating and securing flexible workspace solutions. This service not only helps existing flex office occupiers, but also prospective occupiers by combining strategic workplace advice, market analysis and commercial negotiation to help clients find flexible office spaces that truly support their operational, financial and growth needs.
Diagnostic Audit
The Diagnostic Audit is for all existing office space occupiers, who seek a structured, evidence-based assessment of their organisation’s current workspace to determine how effectively it supports business objectives and accommodates workforce needs. By providing a clear, objective understanding of what is working, what is underperforming and what changes would support business objectives, the audit acts as a foundation for future workplace strategy and facilitates informed negotiations.
Bespoke Strategy and Advice
The Bespoke Strategy and Advice service provides highly tailored solutions for organisations that are unclear whether flexible offices are the best fit for them. Depending on the organisation’s business goals and strategy, this may include exploring other office solutions, such as managed space or the fit-out of CAT A office space to a bespoke requirement. This is a highly personalised service that can include the management of the whole process, from negotiation with the landlord to the procurement of furniture, giving organisations complete peace of mind.
Speaking and Training
Through presentations and workshops, my Speaking and Training service educates clients, teams and industry audiences on evidence-backed best practices and how to effectively integrate flexible office solutions into business strategies. Participants gain the practical knowledge, actionable insights and confidence to make informed workplace decisions, evaluate their office space and maximise flexible office solutions.
Renewal Review Service
The Renewal Review offer is one of empowerment for existing flex office occupiers. The service ensures that occupiers renew their flex office licence on terms that are favourable, compliant, commercially advantageous and aligned with their future workspace strategy.
ESG Compliance
The ESG Compliance service offers guidance to organisations that are existing or prospective flex office occupiers, to ensure that their workplace practice aligns with their Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) standards and goals. This service empowers organisations by offering assurance that their use of flexible office spaces contributes positively to their ESG objectives, reduces risk and strengthens their overall sustainability and ethical performance.
