Wizu opens Knaresborough workspace

The 7,500 sq ft office will launch next month under the Flexico brand, located in Hexagon House within the St James Business Park.

Dixons was appointed on the fit-out of the offices, which are undergoing a £500,000 makeover. Hexagon House will have serviced offices, co-working space, virtual offices, and meeting rooms with pay-as-you-go plans or membership-based subscriptions.

Located on Grimbald Crag Close by the A1, the private offices will have capacity of up to 30 desks, and the co-working lounge space will feature a stocked kitchen.

The new premises is a partnership between flexible workspace provider Wizu and Hexagon House landlord Shirestone.

Wizu Group chief executive and co-founder Tom Almas, says: “Our dream was to create spaces without the stress of running a traditional office, offering flexible terms, transparent pricing, excellent service, all set in a beautiful environment. In 2016 our ambition was realised and Wizu is now one of the most highly rated workspaces in the north.
“Flexico is taking that model and applying it to business communities operating outside the hustle and bustle of city centres with less immediate access to modern office facilities that meet their business needs.
“It caters for individuals and businesses wanting flexibility and accessibility in vibrant, stylish, and creative hubs without having to pay city-centre prices.”
 Wizu Group chairman and co-founder John Guggenheim adds: “By bringing Flexico sites to more locations outside of cities, we very much see this as an opportunity for businesspeople to widen their own networking circles – whether that is recruiting, generating new business leads, or simply meeting like-minded professionals.
“Our mantra is ‘everything you need and nothing you don’t’ and with Flexico we offer our already popular membership model. Hexagon House has capacity for over 200  workstations, plus meeting rooms. We’ll also continue to offer a range of professional needs, offering both phone-booths and quiet spaces.”
