Financial services firm Alpha FX has become the latest business to occupy the Hanover House office development in Bristol.
The company, which develops strategies and technologies to help organisations effectively manage currency, will be based in the building’s third floor after agreeing a five-year lease.
The firm, listed on the London Stock Exchange, is the fifth occupier of the facility on Queen Charlotte Street in the city centre, with the building’s ground floor now the only unlet.
It joins Norwegian wireless fabless manufacturing firm Nordic Semiconductor, specialist professional services and technology business Davies Group, geology and mine planning software supplier Datamine Software and planning consultancy LDA Design.
Refurbishment work was undertaken on Hanover House in 2020 to install a reconfigured reception, a new shower and changing facilities, cycle storage and car parking.
The deal that saw Alpha FX secure its new open plan space, totalling 3,255 sq ft, was overseen by agency Colliers, which advised the landlord as sole leasing agent on Hanover House.
James Preece, director in the national offices team at Colliers, said: “The refurbishment of Hanover House has proved to be very popular with occupiers seeking space that offers a relaxed feel with highly efficient new systems and finishes. Three new tenants have relocated here in the last 12 months.”
Luc Barford, managing director of Alpha FX commented: “Hanover House was a great fit for Alpha FX due to the high-quality refurbishment as well as a great location. We look forward to building an inspiring office space that takes us to the next phase of our exciting growth journey.”
Founded in 2009, Alpha FX employs around 100 people, with other offices based in London, Amsterdam and Toronto.
