Fisher German is set to move into a new office building in Market Harborough and says it will create numerous local jobs as a result.
The Market Harborough office is relocating from its premises in the High Street to an open-plan office to future-proof their presence in Market Harborough. They are about to undertake a complete re-fit of the 5,378 sq ft office, with staff expected to move into the property in September.
The company’s history in Market Harborough dates back more than 200 years and the Grade II listed building they are currently in is anticipated to be transformed into residential accommodation once the expected planning consent is confirmed. The company was established in 2000 after the merger of Fisher Hoggarth and Germans, with Fisher Hoggarth’s history in Market Harborough dating back to 1819. It will be only the fourth time that the Market Harborough-based team has moved during this time having been in its current office since 1960.
The move will take Fisher German to new premises at Innovation House, at Welland Business Park. Anna Collins, Associate Director in the Rural Property Management team, said: “We are extremely excited to announce the launch our new office in Market Harborough. The new, modern space will better reflect our working practices and aspirations while ensuring that we can continue to grow within Market Harborough. It is in a fantastic location on a mixed-use business park based just outside the town centre, benefitting from parking for both staff and those visiting, and it is good to know that the development of our office in High Street will be extremely positive and add vibrancy to the town centre.
We have a long history in the town and are dedicated to further strengthening our presence and continuing to invest in the local area. Our new office will support the firm as it continues to grow, and we are currently advertising for a number of positions in surveying, agency and client accounting. It will also support the welfare of our people, providing them with the best possible working environment as we focus on collaborative working between teams. We now look forward to the completion of the re-fit and welcoming people from across the area when we officially open.”
