The Catalyst on Newcastle Helix

Corporate Property Portfolio

Hybrid work is here to stay and most organisations are currently re-evaluating their corporate property portfolio. Key considerations now include:

  • the suitability for a hybrid workforce
  • total floorspace that may be up to 50% less than before
  • reducing carbon footprint impact
  • enticing space that will encourage employees into the office
  • local amenities for existing and prospective employees

Cost

Corporate Services are predominantly office/hybrid based people-centric organisations. As such the key differentiators on cost are property and people. North of Tyne has:

  • Amongst the lowest corporate property costs in the UK, up to 80% cheaper than a London counterpart and over 40% than the average for the south east
  • Consistently amongst the lowest salary costs in the UK
  • Labour costs for a customer services representative are 24% less expensive than Dublin, and over 16% lower than Greater London

Sites and premises

The North of Tyne offers an extensive portfolio of corporate property including:

  • Grade A facilities
  • BREEAM excellent (top 10% of UK new non-domestic buildings for sustainability)
  • City centre, edge of town, out of town, enterprise zones
  • UK’s largest business park at Cobalt Business Park
