en.Wedoany.com Reported - The built environment consultancy group Contollo Group has recently announced simultaneous office relocations, expansions, and renovations in Manchester, Cheadle, and Knutsford, with the new office in Manchester's Spinningfields district serving as the core of this round of investment.
According to disclosures, Contollo Group officially moved into Spinningfields this week, having completed a sublease for nearly 10,000 square feet of fitted office space in the XYZ building, with a lease term extending until February 2032. The Manchester team of JLL advised on the sublease, while Contollo was supported by Canning O'Neill. This relocation consolidates three of the group's specialist consultancy firms—Abacus Cost Management, KAM Project Consultants, and ESP—into a single location, creating a flagship city-center hub for clients in the region.
Elis Goodfellow, Chief Commercial Officer of Contollo and Director of Abacus Cost Management, stated that moving into the XYZ building in Spinningfields marks a new phase for Abacus, and co-locating with other Contollo enterprises will unlock more opportunities for joint delivery, shared expertise, and client value. Following the completion of multiple acquisitions, including Abacus, MBA, TACE, ESP, and KAM, the group now employs over 230 people nationwide. The group also announced that offices in the UK and Europe will be rebranded using Contollo Group's design system to reinforce its strategic positioning of being rooted in regions while serving the national market.
Ruth Percival, CEO of Contollo Group, noted that as the group continues to expand domestically and internationally, integrating operations in the Northwest is a strategic step to strengthen one of the most dynamic regions. Rebranding all offices nationwide creates a unified group identity, and this relocation further deepens that integration. She stated that the Northwest is a key engine for the group's innovation and delivery, and this investment reinforces its long-term commitment to the region as it scales.
In addition to the Spinningfields relocation, TACE, also part of Contollo Group, is undergoing significant expansion by leasing an additional floor within its existing building at Cheadle's Stanley Green Business Park, reflecting the group's rapid growth and increasing demand for its mechanical and engineering services. Meanwhile, the headquarters in Knutsford—home to the group's finance and central operations—is undergoing a major renovation to support the next phase of growth and integration.
Sam Corby, Office Agent at JLL, commented that this deal is another example of sustained demand for high-quality fitted office space in Manchester city center, particularly in prime locations like Spinningfields. Companies are increasingly prioritizing move-in-ready offices, and this transaction provided exactly that for Contollo Group.
