Building Works Complete!

Clees • May 28, 2025


What a month it's been! We're absolutely thrilled to announce that the building move and refresh we kicked off at the end of April is now complete. It's been a busy few weeks, and the results are splendid.


Our aim with the building consolidation was to create a more united, efficient, and welcoming environment for everyone, and we believe we've achieved just that. Coming together in one building has allowed us to hone our internal layout by making better use of the existing footprint and enhance the flow throughout the space.


One of the most noticeable changes you’ll see right away is our brand-new reception area. Our new reception is bright, modern, and designed to provide a warm welcome to our visitors. It truly reflects the professionalism and forward-thinking spirit of our organisation.

But that's not all; we've also added two brand-new meeting rooms on the top floor and refreshed the team break-out area.

In today's collaborative world, having dedicated and well-equipped spaces for discussions, hot-desking, and client meetings is more crucial than ever, perfect for fostering productivity and innovation.


The building work did at times cause a little disruption, and we appreciate our teams’ patience and understanding while these improvements were underway.


So, please get in touch, and let us welcome you in! We're incredibly excited about this transformation and believe these enhancements will benefit our day-to-day operations, foster better collaboration, and provide an even more positive experience for both our team and our valued guests.

Here's to a new chapter in our cherished United House office in South Manchester!

Well, another year is winding down, and what a year it’s been! Here at Otto Simon, we decided to celebrate all the hard work and dedication of our fantastic team with an evening of festive fun, delicious food, and a touch of wanderlust! A huge, heartfelt thank you goes out to Anna for orchestrating what was a truly splendid Christmas gathering. From the atmospheric lighting to the perfectly planned tapas, Anna, you outdid yourself. Our merry band descended upon Trunk Lounge in Bramhall, and it was fantastic to see such a great turnout, proving that even after a busy year, we still love spending time together! Now, every good story has a new chapter, and for one of our own, that chapter involves packing a very large suitcase! We had the pleasure of raising a glass (or several!) to Chris and his partner Lydia, who are embarking on an incredible year-long adventure, travelling the globe, we are not jealous at all. From all of us at Otto Simon, we wish Chris and Lydia the very best of luck on their incredible journey. We are all sure looking forward to reliving your amazing memories with you upon your return. We would like to end the year with sincere thanks to our Clients, Partners and Staff for all their efforts over the past year and are looking forward to another busy and rewarding year in 2026. Here's to a wonderful Christmas break for everyone, and a prosperous, exciting New Year!
