Last year, the global legal business signed a new 10-year lease at 5 St. Paul's Square in Liverpool, which is home to around 570 DWF colleagues making it one of the firm's largest offices.
The redevelopment will transform its fifth floor workspace to support DWF's approach to hybrid working. It will include traditional desk settings complemented by activity-based work areas, offering flexibility and choice for different work styles.
Versatile and adaptable breakout spaces and meeting rooms will facilitate multiple purposes, from casual lunches and informal meetings to touch down workspaces for collaboration, ensuring colleagues have the appropriate environment for various activities.
A new client suite will include seven flexible meeting spaces, equipped with Microsoft Teams technology to enhance client interactions and internal collaborations. All lighting will be replaced with energy-efficient LED systems, reducing the office's environmental footprint while enhancing the workspace's ambience.
Julie Simms, managing partner for DWF in Liverpool, said: "We are excited to redevelop our Liverpool office, reinforcing our commitment to the city and investment in the region. By creating a modern, flexible, and comfortable working environment, we are enhancing our team's experience and equipping them with the best resources to deliver exceptional service to our clients. Upgraded social spaces, a cutting-edge client suite, and state-of-the-art IT infrastructure will be a game-changer, significantly improve efficiency, connectivity, and make the office a more enjoyable place to work. It is a really exciting time for DWF in Liverpool and we look forward to the new opportunities this will create for our local talent and the growth of our business."
