Experian has been granted planning permission to re-imagine its Sir John Peace Building in Nottingham.
The changes come in the wake of the pandemic, the shift to hybrid working models, and a push from the company for enhanced sustainability with a business-wide commitment to become carbon neutral by 2030.
The proposals will see new disabled parking provision and more cycle storage as part of the reconfiguration of the Sir John Peace Building site to enable the creation of a regional business hub.
Other works include the ecological enrichment of the biodiversity in the landscape, offering staff food growing plots and beekeeping, opportunities for exercise, and electric vehicle charging points.
The plans come as Experian reduces its office footprint to recognise new agile ways of working. Globally Experian are reducing from 157 sites to 100 and in the UK that is a reduction from 17 sites to 5.
The Sir John Peace building will provide a touch down base for staff from the North East and North West, Wales, the Midlands and the East of England.
The additional staff to be accommodated on site, due to the selection of Nottingham as a regional hub office, will see the use of land to the south to accommodate 200 cars.
