Rapid workspace delivery for energetic client

Centrica needed a short term office for a large number of staff near its HQ in Windsor.
Having worked with The Instant Group for a number of years, Centrica understood all the benefits of using Instant’s specialist team to find the best deal in this busy market and contacted us for a solution.

To procure a short term workspace for 250 people within a 2-month delivery deadline.

A challenging brief which required:

• A large number of desks (250)
• 24 hour access and substantial IT requirements
• A location as close as possible to Centrica’s head office in Windsor
• All within a very short 2-month timeframe

• Despite the challenging brief and unusually large scale of the space required, Instant was able to leverage its market insight to conduct a thorough market search and suggest a number of options that met the brief
• Instant successfully conducted all viewings and negotiations, helping 250 Centrica employees move in to their new space close to Heathrow within the 2 month deadline
• Centrica planned to stay in its new space for at least 4 months, but Instant kept in touch as the firm’s single point of contact to enable it to extend the term at the same rate if necessary in future
