Legal recruiter selects No.1 Spinningfields for Manchester HQ

Legal sector recruitment business Douglas Scott is moving its headquarters to No.1 Spinningfields in Manchester.

The company confirmed plans to take up 5,435 sq ft on the 13th floor of the city centre scheme, which it said will provide a collaborative open-plan working environment for its 53 employees.

Manchester-based commercial property firm OBI Property completed the fit-out of the space.

Kathryn Riley, managing director at Douglas Scott, said: “We’re proud of the talented, ambitious team we have built at Douglas Scott – No.1 Spinningfields provides an attractive, comfortable environment that encourages collaboration and knowledge sharing, while allowing the team to do what they do best; building excellent relationships with clients and candidates across the UK.”

Douglas Scott’s HR manager, Rachel Barton, commented: “Our new home at No.1 will not only provide the perfect environment to allow the team to be the best they can be, but will also incite a real sense of pride.

“The space truly reflects our market-leading offering and is a spectacular base from which to continue attracting the recruitment industry’s most talented professionals.”

Other businesses based at No.1 Spinningfields, the city’s tallest newbuild commercial property in 50 years, include law firm Weightmans, professional services giant PwC, private equity firm NorthEdge Capital and workspace provider WeWork.
