SBFM relocates to new HQ to accommodate significant growth
Soft service provider SBFM has relocated to its new, purpose-built HQ in Colton, Leeds, to support continued growth and enhance the employee experience. As part of its wellbeing focus, it includes a state-of-the-art gym and theatre-style auditorium.
This strategic move reflects SBFM's ongoing commitment to creating an inspiring, high-performance workplace that supports both personal and professional development.
The technology-first space was designed with growth and innovation at its core and includes: high-spec meeting rooms, a theatre-style auditorium for company-wide events, electric vehicle charging points, expansive secure bike storage and shower facilities to encourage cycling to work, a gym fitted with the latest equipment and personal trainer guidance on offer. These features are intended to holistically support the mental, physical and professional progress of colleagues.
"The environment we have created here at our HQ champions wellbeing, innovation and sustainability and is accessible to all of our colleagues,” explains Matt Chapman, the company’s CEO. “The investment supports our future development, sustains the entrepreneurial spirit of our employees and will improve the working experience of everyone at SBFM. We wanted to create a space that our teams feel proud of and that our guests love to visit. This is another exciting step in our journey of continued growth."
