New office for our Manchester team

Oct 24, 2023

We’re thrilled to announced that our Manchester office will be relocating to 11 York Street in the heart of Manchester’s central business district from 1 November 2023.

Our Manchester team are moving from their current home at 125 Deansgate to Gilbanks, as part of the Group’s continued growth strategy which will see us accelerate the pace of our development projects across the UK.

Only last month, we announced that we had reached a major milestone at our £1bn Middlewood Locks project in Salford as we celebrated a topping out ceremony at the Railings, where 189 new residential apartments and townhouses are being built and are available for sale.

Set in an ultra-prime location, Gilbanks provides exceptional workspaces meticulously designed to facilitate productivity and help professional communities thrive.  As well as contemporary, new workspace with strong ESG credentials, our colleagues will also have access to various event spaces, including a sky suite on the eighth floor for events providing stunning views across the city.

Paul Kelly, Group Development Director at SGI and head of our Manchester office, commented:

“Our office relocation to 11 York Street demonstrates our continued commitment to our people and our business, providing a fantastic environment in which to foster collaboration, innovation and colleague wellbeing.

“This is a really exciting time for our business in Manchester as we look to accelerate the pace of our developments across the North West and Wales, and I look forward to welcoming the team to our new premises from 1 November 2023.”

Kevin McCabe, Chairman of SGI, added:

“I’m delighted with our new Manchester office, which is a fantastic base from which to continue our growth over the coming years.

“While we’re by no means immune to the effects of the ongoing challenging economic conditions, our business is built on strong foundations stretching back over six decades. Not only that, we’re privileged to be spearheading some of the UK’s most transformational and enviable regeneration projects that will stimulate economic growth and help to attract sustainable, long-term investment.”

Our team joins a rapidly-expanding community of professional services businesses already located at 11 York Place, including Rolls Royce, Avison Young and Morgan Sindall.

Alex Duckett, Managing Director of Gilbanks, said:

“Gilbanks is building an exemplary business community at 11 York Street. The office’s environmental credentials, fantastic location in the heart of Manchester and leading-edge technology continue to attract best-in-class companies like SGI. It’s great to welcome one of the most respected names in property development and we look forward to supporting its team.”
