Turner & Townsend relocates to Sheffield’s Elshaw House

The firm will relocate from 1-3 East Parade to the Heart of the City development, taking 5,200 sq ft of the zero carbon workspace.

CBRE acted on behalf of Turner & Townsend while Colloco and LSH acted on behalf of the landlord, Sheffield City Council.

Located on Carver Street and next to the 3.5-acre Pounds Park, the company said that part of the attraction of the building was in its substantial ESG credentials and also, its grade A amenities, including a roof terrace, shower facilities, and a cycle storage.

The building has achieved a five-star BREEAM energy rating, an ‘excellent’ NABERS UK rating, and sits in the top 1% of office buildings in the UK for energy efficiency.

Chris Sargent, managing director, real estate UK at Turner & Townsend said: “This move not only provides us with a larger, state-of-the-art workspace, but also places us at the heart of Sheffield’s vibrant and transformed city centre.

“The exceptional amenities and green credentials of Elshaw House will undoubtedly enhance our team’s productivity and overall work experience.

“We are especially proud of relocate to a building that we played a significant role in delivering as project and cost managers as part of the Heart of the City II development.”

Andrew Davison, project director, Queensberry commented: “Over the last six months we have seen an increasing number of companies placing sustainable office solutions at the forefront of their agenda.”
