Salloway Property Consultants have let a well-known office/headquarters premise on one of Derby’s key connecting routes.
The property, a detached 10,400 sq ft office building located on Sir Frank Whittle Road/Stores Road, was originally leased by Barclays Bank plc as a banking centre but was more recently occupied by the Department for Work and Pensions for use as a Job Centre, thanks to a previous letting secured by Salloway in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The new tenant, MWH Treatment Limited, part of the RSK Group, are a provider of water, wastewater and environmental services across the UK.
They have taken a new lease of the property as part of a strategic relocation and in order to enable them to create their own new regional headquarters, capable of accommodating their growing team and allowing for more collaboration, advanced technology integration and an enhanced working environment which aligns with the company’s forward-thinking ethos and business objectives.
Valery Shchukin, Project Manager at MWH Treatment Limited, said: “We are thrilled to announce our move to this exceptional new facility and extend our heartfelt thanks to Salloway Property Consultants and the landlord for their unwavering support throughout the process.
“The seamless transition has allowed us to remain focused on what matters most – our team’s future. With its strategic location, modern design, and spacious layout, this new regional headquarters is perfectly tailored to support our growing team.
“Designed to foster collaboration and innovation, the space, enhanced by minor refurbishment and IT upgrades, provides the ideal environment for our expanding team and long-term vision.”
Hugo Beresford, Associate Director at Salloway Property Consultants, was the agent responsible for the deal on behalf of his private pension fund client.
Beresford said: “This letting represents one of, if not, the largest single office letting which occurred within Derby in 2024 and I am delighted that I was able to negotiate and agree terms with such a high-quality tenant.
“I wish MWH all the best with their new premises, which I am sure will be perfect for their purposes. They have significant plans for the building which I look forward to seeing come to fruition.”
The landlord was represented by Hugo Beresford (Salloway Property Consultants) working alongside Philippa Edwards (Edwards Clegg Solicitors), and the new tenant was represented by Land Law LLP.
