Fintech bank LHV Bank has signed for a new office at 12 Wellington Place in Leeds.
The business, which is headquartered in London and has offices in Manchester and Tallinn, has taken furnished office space on the ground floor.
Chris Sills, asset management director at Federated Hermes, the asset manager of Wellington Place, said: “LHV Bank’s decision to base its Leeds expansion at Wellington Place is a clear testament to the strength and appeal of Wellington Place as a leading business destination. The fintech bank’s move builds on the strong momentum we’re seeing from financial, legal and professional service businesses that call Wellington Place home.
“They have not only recognised the strength of Wellington Place’s offer, but also our position at the beating heart of an important business district known as Leeds’ ‘Northern Square Mile’. Additionally, 12 Wellington Place is regarded as one of the UK’s most sustainable office developments, reflecting the growing demand for highquality, future-focused workspace.”
Kris Brewster, interim CEO of LHV Bank, added: “We know the benefits being based at Wellington Place offers, from the exceptional workspace to incredible bars and restaurants, and its community-focused programme of activities. Wellington Place allows us to provide an excellent environment for our people, while supporting our wider growth plans for the business.”
Savills acted on behalf of the landlord.
