Canary Wharf Group has let 45,000 sq ft at 20 Water Street to Zopa Bank for the company’s new UK headquarters.
The bank is relocating from London Bridge and joins more than 65 fintech companies at Canary Wharf.
John Mulqueen, chief investment officer at Canary Wharf Group, said: “Canary Wharf is a home for innovation and entrepreneurship. Zopa Bank is a great addition to the fintech line up bringing more knowledge and expertise to ensure that London remains a leading fintech hub, attracting global capital and top talent.
“Their move to the wharf is testament to our appeal to new and growing businesses, adding to an already diverse and growing mix of customers across the neighbourhood and at Level39 where we’re seeing companies successfully raise and scale.”
Iain Kendrick, chief people officer at Zopa Bank, added: “Relocating to 20 Water Street in the heart of Canary Wharf marks a major milestone in Zopa’s growth journey. Our decision reflects Zopa’s commitment to providing an inspiring, cutting-edge workspace for its employees.
“This move is more than just a change of address – it’s a statement of intent as we change the face of banking in a location previously dominated by the UK’s established banking players. As we continue to scale, investing in a best-in-class workspace reinforces our ambition, culture, and commitment to attracting and retaining top talent.”
