Consultant is seeking to grow its presence in the Yorkshire city and across the region

3 Sovereign Square Leeds

Leeds-based consultant WYG is moving its corporate headquarters from its current base in the city鈥檚 Headingley district to the 3 Sovereign Square development in the centre of the city.

More than 300 people will take part in the move, scheduled for this summer.

WYG鈥檚 new offices will span 21,000ft虏 on the 4th and 5th floors of the building (pictured), which was built by Kier and is owned by the city council.

The firm, which employs a total of 1,600 people working out of 50 locations across the world, said the shift was part of a strategy to grow its presence in Leeds and the wider Yorkshire region.

The building is located close to the railway station and part of a development that will eventually include a new city park and a terminus for the HS2 eastern route.

Last month, WYG announced it had slashed half-year losses from 拢2.8m to 拢755,000.

The firm also reported a new business unit it had set up in the Netherlands to protect its European business ahead of Brexit had won its first jobs, including a scheme for the European Investment Bank in the Balkans.
