Telecoms giant BT has started to move staff into its vast new offices in Bristol city centre. The first of 2,500 workers have begun moving into the multi-million pound Assembly building, part of the growing Bristol Temple Quarter Enterprise Zone next to Temple Meads Station.
Three years in the making, the 190,000 sq ft building brings all BT’s South West teams under one roof for the first time, and features flexible workspaces, shower and changing facilities for staff, a café and a restaurant.
Last year, BT announced plans to create a further 170 jobs at the site. The company is looking to bolster its in-house digital workforce in Bristol and will bring the majority of new staff in by April 2024.
