Following the addition of five staff in 2022, the company planned another recruitment push in 2023 which would bring another five employees through the door.

Ahead of that move, The Gibson Hollyhomes leadership team chose Level to find an office space which was appropriate for what the company would become in the future.

They needed a space in either Spinningfields or Castlefield to be in the right place for their business, providing a limitation for Level to overcome in the search process.

Growth plans reliant on office space

We contacted every office space operator in Spinningfields and Castlefield to get their live availability and found a premium serviced office option which looked out on to the Spinningfields district and had its own private kitchen.

This was the company's ideal location and had parking that was also close to where some of their other team parked. It was the professional look and feel they’d hoped for and also the workspace could accommodate their growth plans.

Gibson Hollyhomes decided the XYZ Building offered everything they needed and signed up for a 12-month term which included a 23% discount on rent secured by Level.

Rachel Hoyle, Finance and Operations Manager, said: “Finding the new office was a relief. It is something we have needed for a while to look to grow and push the business forward and Level was a great help. 

“We had looked at many different serviced office spaces and started to feel disheartened but Joe at Level kept going on our behalf and found the right space for us. It was great having an intermediary fighting our corner, thanks Joe. 

“All being together in our new office space will allow us to work in a more collaborative way. It’s a positive way to drive our employees and business forward.”

“Our experience with Joe at Level has been great from start to finish. Level was persistent in finding a space that suited all of our requirements and made sure to explore the many options available to us.”

Joe Averill, Managing Director at Level, said: “Gibson Holly Homes were hyper specific on where they wanted to be due to where the team wanted to be. Once they articulated their search perimeter we knew exactly the office options that were going to appeal to them.”
