Every building at its best.
Making a building perform as a place to work is an operating business, and it usually sits outside the ownership team. We cover the proposition, the partnership and the operation, from first brief to opening and beyond.
The gap
Commitments got shorter: long leases are harder to come by, and in uncertain times companies choose flexibility, which means shorter terms, more agility and more churn for the building. Occupiers expect more: more service, more amenity and more responsiveness, judged against the best buildings people have worked in. The best buildings deserve to be full: space below its potential is value left on the table. Falling occupancy is falling value. And it happens quietly: slower sales, softer renewals, a building that stops being chosen.
Working Projects: the operating side, on your side
Fifteen years on the operating side of buildings: running them, selling them, building the platforms behind them. Working Projects brings that experience to the ownership side: proposition, partnership and operation, from first brief to opening and beyond.
Core offerings
Feasibility: a defined piece of work covering demand, model options and the numbers, ending in a recommendation you can act on. Partner selection: search, selection and structure for the operator or partnership the asset needs. Performance management: the operation overseen on your behalf, with performance, reporting and the decisions that keep the asset earning. Turnaround and crisis management: when an operation has lost its grip, we establish the position, agree what happens next and deliver it with the team.
Full, chosen, earning what it should: an operation you don't have to think about, and an ownership team free to think about what's next.
Buildings work best when the work behind them is done properly. We're the work behind the work.
Working Ventures Advisory
Sometimes the brief is advisory. Sometimes the right answer is to build and operate it together. Working Projects is the real estate end of Working Ventures Advisory; broader commercial and operating priorities sit there too, led by Matthew Kennedy. Explore Advisory
