Why it Pays to Compare the Whole Bradford Flexible Office Space Market?

Bradford is located in West Yorkshire and is the sixth-largest city in the United Kingdom. It is well connected with excellent links to the M606, M62, M1 and the rest of the UK motorway network. It has several train stations and is served by Leeds Bradford international airport.

In 2022, Bradford was named UK City of Culture 2025 placing it firmly on the national and international stage and encouraging millions of pounds of investment into the city.

Several companies choose to rent office space in Bradford and these are from a wide range of sectors. Notable office occupiers in Bradford include BASF, Provident Financial, Santander and Yorkshire Building Society. The supermarket chain, Morrisons, also has its headquarters offices in the city.

And, in January 2024, it was announced that professional services giant, PwC, would become the anchor tenant at One City Park in Centenary Square.

PwC agreed to rent 27,050 square feet of office space across two floors at the scheme that was built on the former West Yorkshire Police HQ and take occupation by June 2024.

One City Park offers over 56,000 square feet of sustainable and modern workspace and was delivered by nationwide developers, Muse, in partnership with Bradford Metropolitan District Council.

There is a wide range of office locations in Bradford ranging from city centre offices to out-of-town business parks and a wide range of office occupancy arrangements under which business accommodation can be held.

The events of 2020 meant that many companies had to reassess their physical office utilisation with many spaces being left empty during enforced lockdowns. This meant that many businesses could re-examine or introduce for the first time, flexible working and homeworking for their employees.

This meant that many offices were left empty during this period with businesses still required to pay rent, service charge, utilities and other commercial property overheads, which was a burden for many.

Many businesses reported real advantages to utilising homeworking for their staff and many are considering utiising these working models post-pandemic.

Some are now considering what has been termed, Hybrid Workplace Models, whereby they utilise different workplaces with one being home, another being the main office, and some larger companies are considering utilising smaller satellite workspaces for staff for off-site work project work – the latter forms of workspace would be used for work that just couldn’t be done from home yet didn’t necessarily require staff commuting into the city centre.

Post-2020, many companies have predicted that there will be a period of transition back to the office with some incorporation of new working models discovered in 2020.

Many companies have also realised the onerous terms of long leases, particularly when offices are left redundant for weeks or months at a time.

For the two reasons above, as well as others, many businesses are looking for more agile office space solutions that will allow them to experiment with new organisational models and that won’t leave them exposed during future periods of economic uncertainty.

There has, therefore, been a shift towards companies choosing flexible workspace solutions. Flexible workspace, or flex space, is office space that is held by way of a licence meaning that these are short-term office rentals, many office providers and operators also allow an occupier to downsize or upsize their office space footprint at short notice in line with changing business needs.

Flexible office spaces are all-inclusive, too which increases efficiencies in management and reactivity. The monthly office licence fees cover rent, business rates, service charges, utilities, broadband, furniture, cleaning and other items which can be tailored to an occupier’s requirements.

Due to this increased demand, there is an increased supply of flex workspace options, both from existing and new office providers and operators but also from landlords that would historically only provide leased office space for rent.

There are also flexibly leased and shorter-term options from tenants who wish to release some of their excess office space by way of a sub-lease or an assignment.

With this increasing number of flexible space solutions in Bradford, it can sometimes be difficult to have full sight of the marketplace.
