I am the founder of <a href='https://www.theofficeproviders.com' target='_self'>The Office Providers</a> which is an online office space finding platform that is run by offline commercial real estate experts.
Founded in 2009, The Office Providers was an early ambassador of the flexible workspace sector which offers agile alternative solutions to traditionally leased offices. The Office Providers specialises in flexible office space and workspace solutions that offer short-term contacts and all-inclusive pricing.
Since the establishment of The Office Providers, there has been a general move away from renting office space on long-term leases for a variety of reasons.
With the traditional form of leasing offices, a tenant would sign a lease for a minimum of 5 years on average and would then be responsible for the fit-out of the space and then the ongoing management and payment of utilities, IT, cleaning, insurance, furniture and other items.
With the solutions provided by the flexible workspace sector, contract lengths start from 1 year and the space is already fit-out by the office provider. In most cases, occupiers can move into their space within a matter of days unless they request a high level of customisation.
Upon occupation, the occupier pays one monthly rental fee and this covers the office rent, insurance, services charge, utilities, reception staffing, cleaning and so forth as these are all managed by the office provider.
Another reason that flexible office space and workspace solutions have become increasingly attractive since 2009 is that occupiers are not fixed to a set amount of space during their contract – they can upsize or downsize their office space footprint in line with changing business needs.
Working with all office providers in all locations across the UK, Europe and internationally, the company sources serviced offices to let, managed office solutions and coworking space memberships for businesses and organisations of all sizes including start-ups, SMEs and multinational corporations, from all sectors.
The Office Providers offers advice on all aspects of business space occupation including commercial real estate strategy matters such as lease renewals, rent reviews and property management.
The office space agency also offers advice on creating hybrid working strategies with guidance on various forms of office space and workspace solutions that can be efficiently utilised as hybrid workspace.
The Office Providers is regulated by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and its office space acquisition services are FREE to the end user, always.
