UBC is pleased to announce the addition of a new site to its portfolio of flexible offices. From 1st April, UBC acquired Thursby House in Bromborough on The Wirral from Portal Business Centres. 

This established flexible workspace in a modern two-storey building is positioned alongside the popular Croft Retail & Leisure Park on Croft Business Park, central to Bromborough village and is already home to over 40 businesses. 

The site offers fully furnished serviced offices in bright self-contained suites ranging from 100 to 1500 sq ft with high-speed internet, reception facilities, and on-site car parking.  

UBC’s headquarters is in Solihull and already operates regional workspaces in Greater London, England’s South East, South West, North West and Midlands.  The newly acquired Thursby House is the second in the North West of England, bringing UBC’s total to 8 office space locations. 

Operations Director Karen Osborne said, “we are excited to strengthen our presence in the North West of England and are delighted to welcome the Thursby House team and customers to the UBC Family.” 

UBC has an experienced management team, solid reputation and several Flexible Space Association awards for outstanding customer service excellence and offers a range of services to growing businesses, including virtual offices, coworking, private offices and meeting room hire. 

Richard Johnson, Managing Director at UBC, said: “We are thrilled to be announcing Thursby House as our newest UBC location. Covid-19 has accelerated a range of workplace trends, not least the demand for greater flexibility, an increased focus on collaboration spaces and the importance of a trusted operator to manage the workplace experience. UBC is well placed to respond to this, offering a robust and proven business model and with occupancy at well over 80% across our locations, now is the perfect time for us to be expanding our office portfolio.”
