Smith & Williamson to move to new premises
Financial and professional services firm Smith & Williamson is set to move to a new City of London site.
The firm will move to a refurbished office space at 40 Gresham Street, close to its current home at 25 Moorgate, during the course of summer 2022.
The company says the new premises “will incorporate opportunities for greater flexibility and more effective collaborative spaces”.
Announcing the move, David Cobb and Kevin Stopps, co-chief executives at Smith & Williamson, said in a joint statement: “This is great news for Smith & Williamson and is a significant milestone for our business that aligns fully with our long-term growth ambitions.
“The decision to relocate in London is one we have considered extremely carefully but, after a rigorous assessment and having given careful consideration to the needs of both our people and our clients, our board is confident it is the right one for Smith & Williamson.”
“Our new home on Gresham Street will provide a first-class experience for our clients and our people alike and ensures we will all benefit from a modern, sustainable working environment in the heart of the City of London for many years to come.”
Kevin Darvishi, leasing director at developer Stanhope, said: “We look forward to welcoming Smith & Williamson to Gresham St Paul’s, a sustainable development which will provide a light and air-filled, state-of-the art working environment.”
