Nationwide joins The Post Building

Nationwide has announced plans to take up 91,000 sq ft of space at The Post Building for its new digital and technology innovation centre, marking the third (and final) major pre-let at the site.

A joint venture between Oxford Properties Group and Brockton Capital, the former sorting office is located close to Tottenham Court Road and Holborn stations and is already home to Rothesay Life and McKinsey & Company, which have pre-let 49,000 sq ft and 127,000 sq ft respectively. Boutique fitness concept 1Rebel has also taken up 9,000 sq ft across the ground and mezzanine floors.

Chief executive of Nationwide, Joe Garner, says: “The way our members are engaging with us is continually changing, and we recognise the importance of investing in the skills and capabilities needed to continue to meet our members’ needs today and in the future. We now have over four million digitally active members, and that number is growing all the time as each week and month passes… We are excited to be returning to our roots in Holborn, where we were once headquartered back in 1894. All of our market analysis demonstrated the new location is the best place to attract industry-leading talent within the FinTech capital of the world.”
