3 Hardman Square the new home to G2V Recruitment Group
05 September 2024In August 2024, G2V Recruitment Group, an award-winning staffing specialist, has chosen the prestigious 3 Hardman Square office building in Spinningfields, Manchester, as its new base in the city.
G2V Recruitment Group, which operates in the Technology, Engineering, Life Sciences, and Government sectors, has over 25 offices across the UK, EU, and US. This move marks their expansion from their current location at The Chancery, 58 Spring Gardens, to 12,300 sq ft on part of the 3rd floor at 3 Hardman Square, Spinningfields, under a new 10-year lease.
Royal London Asset Management Property has made significant investments in 3 Hardman Square to enhance the occupier experience. The building now features a two-tiered business lounge offering various meeting and social spaces, as well as a state-of-the-art wellness hub with private shower blocks, changing facilities, and secure cycle storage.
Situated in the heart of Spinningfields, 3 Hardman Square provides tenants with a wide range of retail and leisure amenities, including M&S Food Halls and renowned restaurants like The Ivy and Sexy Fish. The 22-acre estate has also recently earned the prestigious Green Flag Award, placing it among iconic locations such as the Gardens of Versailles and Hyde Park.
The combination of world-class green spaces, amenities, and top-tier refurbished office spaces delivered by developers like Royal London has led to 166,000 sq ft of new leases being signed within the estate in the past 12 months.
Isobel Stevens, Assistant Asset Manager at Royal London Asset Management Property, said: “We are proud to offer occupiers of 3 Hardman Square exceptional, repositioned, office space which supports collaboration and wellness, embedded within Spinningfields, a destination for world class leisure and amenity. This is clearly attracting high quality tenants, such as G2V.”
Mark Garner, Office Agent at CBRE, commented: “It is brilliant to welcome another high-profile occupier to 3 Hardman Square. The building offers unrivalled views over the award-winning green space of Spinningfields and is on the doorstep of some of the best lunch spots, and restaurants in the city. We can’t wait to welcome G2V Recruitment Group to the building.”
Ryan Woods, Divisional Director, Vivid Resourcing (G2V Group), expressed excitement about the move: “We are looking forward to joining the dynamic community at 3 Hardman Square, in the heart of Spinningfields. Vivid Resourcing create exceptional career opportunities and are committed to investing in our people. We feel establishing our new Manchester office in the heart of Spinningfields is a perfect location to grow, while attracting and retaining highly capable staff, further solidifying our position at the forefront of the recruitment sector. It’s an exciting time for our people who will enjoy a vibrant workplace.”
Andrew Cowell from OBI, who represented G2V Group, added: “3 Hardman Square will be a fantastic new home for Vivid Resourcing, and we have really enjoyed working with the team at Vivid once again to deliver their relocation. The business continues to grow, and their new Spinningfields office will be the perfect place to grow their talented team. We wish them every success in their new space.”
