Glasgow based fit-out contractor creates 25 new jobs following office move

Linear Group has relocated its head office to a Grade A unit at Eurocentral’s Maxim Park, creating 25 new jobs.

The construction group will move into its new headquarters near Glasgow during February, following the signing of a 10-year lease.

Linear Group has taken 15,000 sq ft of office space to accommodate for the expansion of its operation and team of 55 workers.

This will include 25 desks available for hybrid working, with the option to build capacity by recruiting 25 full time people over the next three years.

Landlord Shelborn Asset Management leased the second floor of building 7 to the company, which also has offices in Manchester and Rotherham. Balfour Beatty occupies the building’s other two floors.

Linear Group’s new office will feature seven meeting rooms, including two that are split by a sliding partition that opens to provide training facilities.

It will also include seven quieter rooms which can be used for video conference calls and other specific tasks, as well as a project room, various break out areas and a dedicated staff kitchen.

Stephen Holmes, chief executive at Linear Group, said: "As we continue to drive forward our ambitions, this location ensures we are well positioned to expand capacity and continue to attract the best talent, ensuring flexibility and appeal which is just what we need.”
