TOPdesk open new office in Manchester

International service management software company TOPdesk has opened a new office in Manchester, with ambitions for significant growth.

Headquartered in the Netherlands, the company specialises in helping organisations to improve their services with user-friendly standardised software.

With eight global branches in locations including Germany, Denmark and Brazil, and an existing UK office in London, the move to Manchester now marks the UK as the only country in which the company holds two offices.

Following a stint at Manchester Science Partnerships, the company has now taken 1300 sq ft of space for their new permanent base in Barclay House on Whitworth Street West.

MIDAS, Manchester’s inward investment agency supported the company with the property search.

TOPdesk’s Manchester Branch Manager David Cape-Brown, said “We saw Manchester as the clear choice for our second UK office because as a city it really punches above its weight.

“With huge names including IBM, the BBC and ITV all choosing to set up here, we are assured that Manchester is a solid destination for the software industry”

“Manchester not only provides us the opportunity to better service our northern clients, but also produces a large pool of highly skilled graduates that we’re looking to tap into.

“The employment hubs at the University of Salford, Manchester Metropolitan University and the University of Manchester have all been really helpful and we’re looking forward to continuing our work with them as we expand our recruitment.”
