The on-site MEPC staff have been excellent at working with us to ensure the continued smooth running of our operations at all times. Slavica Sedlan, Managing Consultant Towers Watson We felt that moving to this estate would help us to create something that was brand new, but wasn t overly ostentatious and gave the right impression to our clients in that we re a professional and high quality outfit. This has given us the image our clients really like to see. John Flathers, Partner Irwin Mitchell What I loved was the community spirit they have and their idea to bring business together and they actually make sure that people work together and work well in a really incredibly modern environment. Michael Carter, SEO Netpremacy Wellington was a very strong choice from day one, primarily for its location; it s very central, it's in the heart of the new business district of Leeds, close to the station, great public transport links just a great central place to be. What we've got at Wellington is being part of a community; there s cafe on the ground floor of our building for example, there re exercise classes for those who want them, even a five-aside football pitch, but also a good sense of space and a real sense of place.
