Office Types

Serviced Office

A serviced office, sometimes referred to as a managed office or executive suite, is a fully furnished and equipped workspace that is managed by a facility management company or serviced office provider. This is the ideal fit for a start-up or SME. In a serviced office arrangement, tenants typically pay a fee for the use of the space and various amenities on a short-term basis, often through a flexible rental agreement.

Managed Office

In a managed office setup, tenants have a more hands-on role in shaping their workspace. Unlike serviced offices, which offer fully furnished and equipped spaces with limited tenant input, a managed office presents itself as a 'blank canvas.' Tenants are empowered to define their specific requirements, from seating arrangements to interior design choices.

Leased Office

A leased office, also known as a rental office or commercial lease office, refers to a space within a building or complex that is rented out by a landlord to a tenant for a specified period, typically under a formal lease agreement. Leased offices are commonly used by businesses, organisations, or individuals who need a physical workspace but may not want to or be able to purchase or own property outright. If you are a corporate business then this might be the best solution for you.

Co-Working Offices

A co-working space is a shared workspace where individuals from different companies, industries, or professions work alongside each other in a communal setting. These spaces are typically managed by co-working operators or companies and offer a flexible and collaborative environment for freelancers, remote workers, startups, and small businesses.

Virtual Offices

A virtual office is a service that provides businesses with a professional address, phone number, and sometimes additional administrative services without the need for a physical office space. It enables businesses to establish a presence in a desirable location without the associated costs and commitments of leasing traditional office space.
