Henry Boot : ADT Workplace appointed to fit-out our new Head Office

Henry Boot has appointed ADT Workplace to fit-out The Isaacs Building, its new Head Office in Sheffield which the business is set to relocate to later this year.

ADT Workplace will fit-out the 12,800 sq. ft. space taken by Henry Boot across the top three floors of the Isaacs Building, providing its team, clients and partners with a contemporary, sustainable, and flexible headquarters.

The Isaacs Building, located on Charles Street was built in 1904-05 and has been newly-refurbished to provide over 38,375 sq. ft. of high-quality workspace. ADT Workplace has completed an in-depth workplace consultancy process including project tours, stakeholder workshops and design workshops, working in close collaboration with Henry Boot, and Incognito to develop the scope, budget and programme for the project.

The Isaacs Building sits within Sheffield's 'Heart of the City' development, which will provide 1.5 million sq. ft. of new individually designed and repurposed buildings surrounded by enlivened streets and public spaces, including a new urban park for the city and enhanced connectivity.

The aim of the new HQ at the Isaacs Building is to support the ambitious growth plans of the business in a new environment and to support its 2030 net zero carbon commitments. The seven-storey Isaacs Building has been developed with sustainability at its core achieving a BREEAM 'Very Good' rating. To further enhance the building's energy efficiency, it has been connected to Sheffield's District Energy Network, providing low-cost, sustainable energy.

Tim Roberts, Chief Executive Officer, Henry Boot, commented: "After 90 years at Banner Cross Hall this move is a significant one and we consider it to be of incredible importance for our new Head Office in Sheffield to feel like a fresh and ambitious step forward, providing us with a new environment that encourages greater collaboration and cohesiveness across Henry Boot's diverse network of teams. We are confident that with the diligent and thoughtful approach of ADT Workplace, The Isaacs Building will prove to be the ideal headquarters fit for the long-term future of Henry."

George Tilbury, commercial manager at ADT Workspace commented: "Working with Henry Boot over the last 12 months has provided us with real insight into their people's wants and needs, and business processes, which has enabled us to develop a bespoke workplace design which will deliver tangible benefits for the organisation. This isn't simply a change in office location to a fantastic redevelopment in the heart of Sheffield, this is an evolution of the way in which the Henry Boot team works, collaborates, and develops as a team, and we're really excited to see the project come to fruition over the coming weeks."
