Fit-out specialist Overbury has chosen NFU Mutual’s Chancery Place office building in the central business district as its new Manchester headquarters.
The deal has been signed for 6,843 sq ft on a 10-year lease.
The firm will relocate from its existing workspace at the Zenith Building, where it occupies 5,500 sq ft.
Alex Pocock, asset manager at NFU Mutual, said: “Securing an occupier of this calibre is a testament to the quality of the recent refurbishment works, and we are actively making further improvements to the building to enhance the existing amenity provision.”
NFU Mutual has invested heavily into Chancery Place to create an enhanced occupier experience, including a newly refurbished reception and common areas in addition to a communal roof top terrace. Plans are also in place to deliver improved end-of-journey facilities in the basement in the coming months.
David Vaal, managing director at Overbury, said: “Having been at our existing offices for the last 18 years, this move comes at a pivotal moment in Overbury’s growth in the region.
“The new office environment we are creating will inspire and motivate our team, providing a space that supports creativity and enables them to give exceptional service to our clients.”
CBRE, OBI and Colliers are leasing agents for NFU Mutual on Chancery Place; Knight Frank acted for Overbury.
