Space Solutions Growth Steers Recruitment Drive

Scotland’s leading commercial property firm is increasing its Edinburgh workforce as part of its ongoing development strategy and impressive sales figures.

Following a solid financial performance by its central Scotland base in the Capital, Space Solutions has created four new posts across its broad range of services.

The company – which boasts five UK offices and more than 140 staff – has vacancies for a marketing manager, senior architect, quantity surveyor and a business development manager.

Gary McGurk, business manager at Space Solutions, said: “The advertised roles are integral to the ongoing growth strategy of our business and we are keen to attract the best calibre of staff for what will be an exciting time for the company.

“We’re looking for candidates to join the established team and continue the development of our already very successful business in Edinburgh and the Lothians.

“Not only will the increase in staff numbers help us provide a higher level of service for our existing clients, it will also assist in attracting new clients and projects.

“We’re an entrepreneurial company and we hope the successful candidates who are hired will embrace our fast paced, dynamic and challenging work environment.”

Space Solutions is Scotland’s biggest independent expert in helping businesses manage changes within the workplace. It operates UK-wide – from bases in Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Dundee and Livingston – to design, build, fit out, refurbish and relocate modern and productive business environments.

The company proved its resilience through the continued tough conditions for the property sector by recording surging sales figures at the end of the financial year.

Solid performances recorded by its central Scotland bases in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Livingston – which are all outperforming last year’s revenues significantly – are being linked the firm’s skill in providing imaginative solutions to help businesses manage their workplaces through the challenging economic conditions.

Turnover across the three central belt divisions has increased by more than £1.5million (up 90%) for the first nine months of the company’s financial year.
