STEM-aligned careers in property management are essential for science and tech businesses because they help these businesses find the right spaces to help them drive their businesses forward, optimise the physical assets they operate in, reduce operational costs, ensure compliance with regulations, and create an environment conducive to innovation and growth.
Property professionals enable businesses to focus on their core scientific and technological endeavors while effectively managing their real estate and property-related needs. Our role in helping science and tech businesses achieve their goals is delivered in several ways:
Project Management: Science and tech businesses and campuses often require specialized infrastructure and facilities to conduct their research and development activities. Our project managers ensure that these facilities are well-constructed, efficient, safe and constructed in a way that enables occupiers to focus on their core activities without worrying about their assets being fit for purpose so they can concentrate on what they do best.
Location, Accessibility, Scalability and Growth: The choice of location for a science or tech business can significantly impact its success. Space agency professionals George and Beth assist in selecting optimal locations that provide access to talent, customers, suppliers, and research institutions. A strategic location is essential for fostering collaboration and innovation. Then as science and tech businesses expand, this team plays a crucial role in finding additional space, negotiating leases, and managing the logistics of moving or expanding operations. This flexibility is essential for rapid growth and adaptability.
Space Optimisation, Sustainability and Energy Efficiency: Charlie from our building surveying team helps businesses make the most of their physical space. This includes optimizing office layouts, lab configurations, and manufacturing facilities. Efficient use of space enhances productivity and innovation. Sustainability and energy efficiency are key considerations for any science or technology focussed business. Charlie can also help science and tech companies adopt environmentally friendly practices in their facilities, reduce energy consumption, and minimize their carbon footprint.
