International property and construction consultancy Gleeds has announced it will relocate its global headquarters to a new office at 60 Berners Street as of January 2025.
The firm will occupy 13,000 ft2 of space in the new building, marking the next chapter in London for the 139-year-old organisation.

The business has spent over 20 years in its current New Cavendish Street HQ and will continue to advise clients from the heart of London’s exciting Fitzrovia district following the move. It will be based across the lower ground, ground and fifth floors, with the lower ground floor to be used as a multi-purpose event space. The design-led building also offers collaborative, open-plan working spaces and a rooftop terrace.
Rated as BREEAM Excellent and WELL enabled, 60 Berners Street has been constructed using low embodied carbon materials, created by using increased cement replacement. The building, designed by Emrys Architects, is fully electric for energy services, and is in line with Gleeds’ low carbon property strategy. Gleeds is also targeting a SKA Gold rating, and the building has a living roof, climbing plants and bird boxes, designed to create a thriving habitat for a minimum of 30 species of wildlife, including bees, butterflies and birds, boosting biodiversity in the heart of London.
Gleeds employs 2,800 people globally and works on a range of sector-defining schemes across the globe, including some of London’s most recognisable buildings. The firm’s UK business has also been certified on multiple occasions by Great Places to Work.
Chair of Gleeds Worldwide, Richard Steer, says of the move, “We’re looking forward immensely to the transition to our new global headquarters and marking a new and exciting chapter for our London office. As our business continues to go from strength to strength, our new workplace will create a collaborative environment where our teams will be able to support the delivery of our clients’ exceptional projects and help them to achieve their goals.
“London was the very first home to Gleeds some 139 years ago, and we’ve transformed beyond recognition since then. I can’t wait to see what our business will achieve from its new location.”
