Primeast moves to “premium” Harrogate office

A Harrogate-based global training provider is relocating to a premium office development in the town.

Primeast, which delivers corporate learning solutions and culture change consulting for international firms including The British Council, Altrad and Kia, will move its headquarters to Copthall Bridge, with bosses saying it will provide “the best possible office environment” to match the company’s aspirations.  

The Copthall Bridge site, developed by office group WorkWell following a £10.5 million investment, offers a high-quality workspace tailored for SMEs and growing businesses. 

The facility provides private offices, meeting rooms for hourly rental and co-working spaces, supporting up to 360 jobs in Harrogate.

Located centrally, with easy access to train and bus stations, the office is set to open in January 2025 and has already attracted interest from local and national firms seeking to strengthen their presence in the town.

Sarah Hambly, head of people and finance at Primeast, which has twice been recognised with Queen’s Awards for International Trade, said: “As a global business, it’s essential that we provide our teams with the best possible office environment that enables them to give their best.

“The team at Copthall Bridge work as part of our business to support our operations, and the technology makes remote and hybrid working seamless.

"The office has great connectivity with only a short walk to the town’s rail and bus hub. It’s a fantastic place to be, and we are confident it supports our business aspirations."

Oliver Corrigan, managing director of WorkWell, added: "Primeast is a dynamic, people-focused company that’s an ideal fit for our offices at Copthall Bridge. 

“We've created a premium office environment that helps retain and attract the best talent. 

“We aim to make every one of our customers more productive through thoughtfully designed spaces, the latest technology and great service."
