Laura and the team at Flux were brilliant from start to finish, which resulted in us finding our perfect office space. Laura understood what we were looking for and only showed us properties that met our criteria, cutting down time spent doing unnecessary viewings. The whole team was on hand to help when questions arose and were available out of hours while we secured the lease. Thank you for making this process so quick and easy.

Priorities
The Solution
After working with Novata and understanding their desire to move away from hot desking and making the decision to move into their own London office, the team at Flux HQ were on the case to support them with this exciting project.
As this was their first London office, it was very important that we took our time to discuss the possibilities and what was truly important vs ‘nice to haves’. Finding an office that facilitated the space that allowed for collaboration, future growth, a place to host team social events and that had their own private meeting rooms was what we were tasked with finding.
We found the perfect space at Copthall House, that ticked all their boxes and even had a cool roof terrace which the team at Novata were excited about, giving them a place to host their summer BBQ’s!
