In short: London office moves are being shaped by hybrid working and a "flight to quality": many firms are taking less space but in better-located, energy-efficient buildings with strong amenities. Prime space in the City, West End and around new Elizabeth line stations is in high demand, while older stock can offer good deals. Allow six to twelve months for a move, including lease negotiations, fit-out and notice on your current lease. Fraser Bond helps businesses find and negotiate offices across London.
