Clarke Willmott moves into new Cardiff office
National law firm Clarke Willmott LLP has moved into its new Cardiff office in Callaghan Square.
Taking 3,172 sq ft of space, the firm will occupy the second floor of 2 Callaghan Square, a prime location in the heart of the city centre’s main business district.
Moving 26 colleagues from the previous office at Pierhead Street, the firm has created an open plan office space crafted to compliment hybrid working and accommodate both in-person and remote working.
The state-of-the art space comprises an impressive business lounge which makes the ideal location for collaborative or more relaxed meetings; 25 sit/stand desks; a privacy booth; and a range of meeting and conference rooms for client and colleague catch ups. Staff and visitors also have access to a kitchen, secure bicycle storage, showers and changing rooms.
Less than 10 minutes’ walk from Cardiff Central train station and less than 20 minutes’ walk from Queen Street train station, the office move plays a vital role in Clarke Willmott’s commitment to sustainability and closely follows the relocation of the Bristol headquarters to a new grade A space.
Vicky Kells, head of the Clarke Willmott Cardiff office, said: “We are so excited to be relocating to this new office, marking a new chapter in our journey.
“The move comes just before our 10-year anniversary and we couldn’t be happier to be here in Cardiff, in a new city-centre office and celebrating the successes of the last decade.
“I’m immensely proud of the team we have here and look forward to continuing to make our mark on the Cardiff legal scene.”
Clarke Willmott CEO Peter Swinburn, said: “The relocation of the Cardiff office supports our way of working and strengthens our commitment to sustainability. The building’s design aligns with our ESG goals, including reaching Net Zero by 2040, and wherever possible, we’ve reused and repurposed our original furniture.
“We’re undergoing a full review and overhaul of our property portfolio. So far, this has included opening a new purpose-built office in Birmingham, unveiling a major refurbishment of our Taunton office and relocating in Bristol and Cardiff. We will continue this journey with our London, Manchester and Southampton offices, in order to build for the future.”
