Countrywide plc, the UK's largest property services group, has brought its London head office personnel together at a new office on Oxford Street in the heart of London.

The move to UK House at 180 Oxford Street has seen more than 170 people from head offices across London including Hamptons International, John D Wood & Co., and Ikon, bought together for the first time. These teams will join Countrywide's executive team and Lambert Smith Hampton who are already based at UK House - bringing nearly 500 Countrywide Group personnel together in one location.

Commenting Graham Bell, Managing Director for London at Countrywide plc, said:

'We have never had all of the head office functions for our London based businesses together in one place so we are excited by this move. The timing is right for our strategy of 'One Countrywide' and these offices which are located in such a central location in London will enable us to develop and grow together.'

Commenting Paul Creffield, Managing Director for B2B at Countrywide plc, said:

'The new head office on the seventh floor at UK house is a very modern and stylish space with a dynamic environment, allowing for greater collaboration between our people and our business units. We look forward to welcoming our colleagues from across the Countrywide Group and our corporate partners to our new head office.'
