When the building is completed in early 2024, Hurst will take 11,000sq ft at 3 Stockport Exchange. The move comes as the current office in Tiviot Dale in Stockport town centre has been outgrown.

Hurst has taken a 10-year lease to occupy the whole of the fifth floor of 3 Stockport Exchange, the latest phase of a £145m project by Muse Developments and Stockport Council.

The fit-out of the new HQ is due to begin in January 2024, with its 120-strong team scheduled to move in next April. The new HQ will give the firm scope to expand to around 170 staff, which it aims to achieve over the next three years.
