South Central offers impressive office space with a mix of contemporary and original features. South Central dates back to 1888 where it was originally a packing warehouse for John Stevenson & Sons Ltd called Central Buildings. Today South Central is the perfect mix of a contemporary work environment and period character. South Central is a particularly special building for Bruntwood, as it was actually the first acquisition the company made in Manchester city centre in 1979. This building is a unique example of how Manchester’s historical past has been transformed into a vibrant, modern and forward thinking home for business. Welcome to your new reception at South Central. The new reception scheme allows for co-working space, meeting space and collaboration between companies. At Bruntwood we encourage collaboration and creativity in the work place and are creating spaces to nurture this behaviour.

How your staff feel about their work space is also crucial. Your staff are your brand first impressions count. ambassadors and a bright, vibrant and creative environment can also help inspire and boost productivity. The office is also a place for you to showcase your corporate culture and live out your brand – a concept that is all too often overlooked. To help you make the space distinctively your own, we openly encourage a collaborative approach to the design of your office. We want you to view the work space not as something to be taken ‘off the-shelf’ but more as a ‘blank canvas’ for you to turn your ideas of the perfect office into a reality.
