As one of the UK’s fastest-growing investment companies, AJ Bell knew their environment was key to helping accelerate their next wave of growth. We were commissioned to understand how their relocation strategy would impact on their people and organisation, what their employees needed from their new workplace, and design and build a space that supported those needs.
The company’s commitment to their vision inspired, engaged and aligned people right across the business. In partnership with AJ Bell, we helped drive their successful transformation and create one of the world’s top-performing workplaces.
This level of success can only be achieved with a powerful vision, and the commitment and knowledge to realise it. The leaders in the business defined what they wanted at a strategic level, whilst we interpreted their vision on a human level, to understand how we could transform the company experience for everybody working there.
We helped AJ Bell navigate towards their goals by communicating with their staff and working closely with change champions within the company to embed our methodology. From start to finish, people were supported through the transformation and became part of the journey.
Every element of our design has a reason for being. We used design to bring their company values to life – physically aligning leadership, employees and customers through the heart of the building.
Time and time again, we see the best results come from clarity and alignment between and within project teams. Working with AJ Bell was no different.
Everything developed in EQ4 has been born out of TSK’s experience and out of what our people wanted. I’m delighted with our new headquarters.
- Andy Bell, Chief Executive, AJ Bell
AJ Bell wanted to take their company to the next level. Together, we achieved it – from initial consultation to design and build. Now, each and every employee knows they have the potential to add even more value to a world-class organisation.
For AJ Bell, it means offering a flexible environment in which to work, meet and collaborate. It means staff having access to a state-of-the-art gym, a training and seminar suite, an e-learning zone, an amphitheatre and a rooftop terrace and bar. But more than anything, by engaging people all the way through, we created a company-aligned and top-performing workplace for achieving their targets.
