A Scottish legal firm has invested in a new office space in Glasgow, as its teams look to the future of post-pandemic ways of working.
Wright, Johnston & Mackenzie’s Glasgow team will be moving to St Vincent Plaza, a Grade A office in the heart of the city’s business district.
Managing partner Fraser Gillies explained: “It’s a really modern space which is the perfect fit for our future-thinking practice.
“The new office space will satisfy the needs of our people and our clients, and the open plan layout will really enhance our collaborative working across our multidisciplinary teams.”
The 10,000 sq ft space at St Vincent Plaza will be Wright, Johnston & Mackenzie’s fourth office on St Vincent Street in a period spanning three centuries.
The firm also has offices in Edinburgh, Inverness, Dunfermline and Dunblane.
Gillies continued: “Like so many other businesses, we had to adapt quickly to working from home, and although the experience hasn’t been without its challenges, I think we’ve learned a lot about how well we can work remotely while still fostering a sense of collegiality and we are using these lessons to shape our working practices going forward.
“Despite continuing to perform well over lockdown, we now appreciate the true value of meeting and having discussions in person, so while we fully intend on keeping elements of home-working, we also think having a high quality office as place to meet a and collaborate with colleagues and clients is essential.”
