Office provider set for major growth with new sites

Flexible office provider Cubo, which is part of Staton Young, has announced major growth plans with the opening of four new sites across the UK.

The Derby firm has said it aims to open the new sites in Edinburgh and Manchester, alongside additional locations in Birmingham and Nottingham, where it already operates.

Cubo opened its first flexible office space in Derby city centre in 2020, which is now provides a base for Marketing Derby and a number of its Bondholders.

As well as Birmingham and Nottingham, Cubo also has sites in Leeds and Sheffield.

The new sites, which are expected to open in the coming months, will effectively double Cubo’s national footprint.

The company, which was launched by property investors Marc and Rebecca Brough, is transforming the traditional serviced office model to enable increasingly intuitive ways of working.

It provides an experience-led lifestyle offer to meet the changing needs of businesses – from hotdesking to a designated desk, private office, or entire floor, all available on flexible terms.

Member benefits include large communal spaces, private areas, break-out spaces, kitchens, an inclusive barista service with beer on tap, along with a programme of free networking events.

Marc said: “After enjoying a hugely successful 2022, we have taken the decision to accelerate our expansion plans to meet the growing needs of both existing members and other corporate occupiers who have committed to work with Cubo as the business grows a nationwide platform.

“While we are currently working on the launch of four new workspaces, we are also earmarking other provincial cities where we want Cubo to have a presence and more announcements will be made in due course.

“Cubo is a becoming a highly sought after space for many businesses because of its unique way of working and opportunities. We look forward to capturing more of the market for hybrid working in 2023 and beyond.”
