Prime Office Space Website Relaunch

The ever popular Prime Office Space website has had a facelift.

New Look: After nearly 8 years of helping businesses to find office space in the UK Prime Office Space has a new look, a new logo, a new colour scheme, and a new layout.

News: We’ve added a News section, both to let you know about updates to our site and offerings, and to keep you informed about important commercial property and business issues.

Social: In an effort to make it easier for you to communicate with us we’ve linked our Facebook and Twitter accounts from the site and included social sharing buttons so that you can easily comment, post and share offices or news that might interest your friends and colleagues.

Visually, everything on the website has changed, yet underneath the shiny new exterior it’s still the same site that you know and trust.

Prime Office Space still provides one of the UK’s most comprehensive databases of shared, serviced, managed, conventional, temporary and long term office space available to let. We still offer outstanding customer support and it’s still available to businesses at no cost, and absolutely no obligation.

We would love to hear what you think about the new look, as well as any glitches you might come across. We hope that we have tested the new site “to destruction” but there is no better quality control team than a site’s users, so please let us know if something goes wrong (or right).

As always, thank you for using Prime Office Space. If you haven’t already, please join us on Facebook or Twitter or send us a note. We look forward to hearing from you.

Office Christmas Party Dress Code

Posted on November 30, 2012

Ladies holding wine glassesWith Christmas only 4 weeks away, most of us are busy planning our holidays, organising our agendas, and choosing gifts for friends, relatives, and work colleagues. During this busy period, choosing what to wear to the office Christmas party can be a daunting task, so in this article we have put together a list of suggestions that can inspire you.

Choosing an outfit for the company’s Christmas staff party: do’s and don’ts

Office Christmas parties provide an opportunity to relate to your colleagues in a relaxed atmosphere and outside the rigid dress codes of the corporate world. However, this does not mean that everything goes when it comes to choosing an outfit. Although it is true that the dictates of appropriateness vary from company to company, there are certain general guidelines that can help you decide what is appropriate or inappropriate in terms of a Christmas party outfit.

As a general rule of thumb, you should not choose an outfit that will attract unwanted attention. This includes clothing that is too revealing or “alternative”. Needless to say, showing too much cleavage or wearing a dress that is shorter than mid-thigh will probably be considered inappropriate. Another way to look at it is not choosing anything that you would not want your boss to see you dressed in.

It is also important to consider where the party will take place. Certain outfits are appropriate for a lunch party but not for a formal event at a 4-star hotel, and vice versa. Lastly, it is better to avoid excessive displays of jewellery or anything too “glitzy”.

The Beehive Gatwick

Posted on November 27, 2012

The Beehive was the original airport terminal building at the current site of London’s Gatwick Airport. Today, the building is a stylish and modern business centre with tenants representing various business and service sectors, from information technology to the oil and gas industry. The Beehive features a range of office amenities and excellent transportation links, including high-speed broadband technology and ample meeting space. With its heritage setting and stunning architecture, The Beehive provides occupants with a unique working environment.

History
Completed in 1936, The Beehive was a state-of-the-art terminal during the early years of commercial aviation. In addition to being the first airport terminal building in the United Kingdom, the structure was noted for being the world’s first circular passenger terminal building. In 1952, the government authorised the development of Gatwick as an alternative to Heathrow Airport. As a result, The Beehive closed in March 1956 to allow for construction of a new airport. In 1958, Gatwick Airport re-opened as London’s second major airport.

Refurbishment
From 2000 to 2008, the iconic building served as the headquarters of GB Airways. The two-story building is owned by the Bland Group, which also managed GB Airways until it ceased operations in 2008. Following an investment of £1.6 million to refurbish and renovate the landmark building, The Beehive reopened in July 2009. Since 2009, Orega has managed a business centre at The Beehive under a joint venture agreement with the Bland Group. The company provides full-service and managed offices to all types of businesses at facilities across the United Kingdom.
