Hodgins Smith Moves To New City Centre Premises

It’s an exciting start to the year for Scottish-based firm Hodgins Smith Consulting Limited as they complete a move to a brand new head office in Glasgow city centre.

The move coincides with many other exciting new developments for the health and safety consultancy company in the year ahead.

Perry Leeks, Managing Director of Hodgins Smith Consulting, said: "We are very pleased to announce that we are moving to brand new offices in Glasgow city centre. The new, more central location means we are even better placed to service the needs of all of our clients in Scotland and further afield, and reflects a rejuvenation for the company which will in turn benefit all those we work with."

The health and safety firm, formerly based in Prestwick, Ayrshire, will be retaining their field offices in Pershore, in the West Midlands, and central London.

Following a structural review within the Hodgins Smith team, the company will also be welcoming a number of new faces and Mr Leeks explained: "A new team will give the business an injection of energy to help it to forge ahead to even greater success in 2012."

Hodgins Smith have extensive development plans for 2012, including moving forward with brand new products, such as their exclusive Safeguarding Services package, which offers a comprehensive and all-inclusive health and safety service for all business types. They also have a number of new projects to commence work on and, as a national company, are focussing on further expanding their services throughout the UK.

There are busy times ahead but, as Mr Leeks concluded: "Our focus for business is always on quality, growth and innovation."
