Atkins Building launches flexible workspace solution

Ideally suited for a freelancer waiting for Wi-Fi installation at home or a home worker who has the need for an office but only part time. A start-up business wanting to work in a more professional environment, or a lone worker just needing a change of scene. The new flexible workspace can offer space from a daily rate of just £23 plus VAT and offers access to full office facilities.

Atkins Building’s Co-working space is a warm and welcoming open-plan office that's designed to accommodate people from different businesses to undertake their work in a comfortable and professional setting. This service has been created in response to the increase in flexible and hybrid working patterns. A desk is available to book in half day and full day options.

The space and the facilities will be available to view at a launch event on Wednesday 17 April from 9.30am to 11pm. There will also be an opportunity to meet members of the Leicestershire Business Advice Service. If you wish to attend the launch or would like more information, email info@atkinsbuilding.co.uk

The space we have available will prove ideal for a wide range of businesses, lone workers, start-ups, or individuals who just fancy a change from the spare bedroom or kitchen table. We offer a range of flexible options and I hope that anybody interested in the facilities will come and take a tour on 17 April and see what the Atkins can offer.
