Challenge

McCann Worldgroup, a leading global marketing services company, aimed to unite its UK agencies, previously dispersed across multiple locations, into a single, cohesive headquarters. The objective was to foster enhanced collaboration and communication among teams by relocating approximately 1,200 staff members to 135 Bishopsgate in London. This ambitious move required meticulous planning and execution to ensure minimal disruption to operations and to create a workspace that reflected the company's innovative ethos.

Solution

G&T was appointed to provide Project Management, Cost Management, and Construction & Property Tax Advice for the relocation project. Collaborating closely with architecture firm Gensler, we oversaw the design and fit-out of the new office space. The design featured client-facing areas, a central atrium connecting all floors, an extensive terrace, and diverse pitch settings, all tailored to enhance creativity and collaboration. Our expertise ensured that the project adhered to budgetary constraints and was delivered on schedule, effectively transforming 135 Bishopsgate into a dynamic and functional workspace.

Outcome

The successful consolidation of McCann Worldgroup's UK agencies into the new headquarters has significantly improved inter-agency collaboration and operational efficiency. The innovative design and strategic layout of the workspace have fostered a more unified corporate culture. G&T's comprehensive management and advisory services were instrumental in achieving a seamless transition, delivering a headquarters that embodies McCann Worldgroup's vision and values.
