HEYCA makes waves with marina move

A Hull-based public sector body has secured new office space in one of the city’s most sought-after waterfront locations.

The Hull and East Yorkshire Combined Authority (HEYCA) has taken a lease at Two Humber Quays on Hull Marina, where it will occupy the second-floor east office. 

The devolved body, led by the region’s first elected mayor Luke Campbell, oversees economic investment and development across Hull and East Yorkshire.

Mayor Campbell said: “Two Humber Quays really shows off Hull at its best, with the marina to one side and the Humber Estuary to the other.

“It’s a fantastic building in a great setting, and the entire Mayoral team is excited to be based there.”

Two Humber Quays is owned by family-run business The Rix Group, which has invested heavily in the property since acquiring it in 2021. 

The building, which also houses firms including interior design specialists Chameleon and financial services company RSM UK, is now fully let following the deal.

Mike Fry, director of estates at Rix Group, added: “We are pleased to welcome the Mayoral Office as a new tenant at Two Humber Quays.

“As a family-owned business with deep roots in Hull, we are committed to supporting the local community and the civic infrastructure of both Hull and the wider East Yorkshire region.

“This new base reinforces Hull’s standing as a hub for regional governance and ensures the mayor’s office can operate from a central, well-connected location.”
