An IT firm has relocated to a new home in the West Midlands - its first move in more than three decades.
Air IT has taken almost 2,800 sq ft at 6270 Bishops Court on Birmingham Business Park, in Solihull.
The new space is nearly twice the size of its previous office and will enable the business to take on at least a dozen new staff over the coming months.
Regional director Andrew Penlington said: "We’d been at System House in Yardley since 1987 and, as we had grown over the years, it eventually just wasn't suitable for a company in our sector because collaboration is everything in IT.
"However, we didn't want to move to somewhere too far away or take a lease on an office which was too large so it was a question of finding the right balance.
"Bishops Court is just right for us and our clients, we've got room to expand.
"We've got 16 staff at the moment but the office will accommodate 28 and I'd expect to have all the new arrivals in place over the next three to six months."
Birmingham property agency KWB facilitated the move for Air IT which has provided IT support services to the consultancy for more than 30 years.
Director John Bryce added: "They've been there when we needed them the most, through recessions and booms and, now they're the regional division of Air IT, they really needed somewhere new.
"It's crucial to find trusted advisers in the professional services community and Andrew has helped us navigate through a sea-change of innovation in IT and kept us both up to date and fully functioning at all times.
"It can't always be true that good things happen to good people, whether it's professional or personal, but I couldn't be more pleased that this move has gone through smoothly."
