A Harrogate headquartered global training provider has moved its office to Copthall Bridge in the town.

Primeast provides corporate blended learning solutions and culture change consulting to firms ranging from The British Council, Altrad and Kia. The firm twice received recognition for its growth when it won Queen's Awards for International Trade. It supports customers across the globe.

Commenting on the move, Sarah Hambly, head of people and finance at Primeast, said: "As a global business, it's essential that we provide our teams with the best possible office environment that enables them to give their best. The team at Copthall Bridge work as part of our business to support our operations, and the technology makes remote and hybrid working seamless.

"The office has great connectivity with only a short walk to the town's rail and bus hub. It's a fantastic place to be, and we are confident it supports our business aspirations."

Copthall Bridge offers a premium office environment for established SMEs and owner-operated businesses looking for one to 40 desks. It will also feature meeting rooms available for hourly rental and co-working spaces.

Office group WorkWell has invested £10.5m to redevelop a site at Copthall Bridge. The new site will support 360 jobs in the spa town.

Oliver Corrigan, managing director of WorkWell, said: "Primeast is a dynamic, people-focused company that's an ideal fit for our offices at Copthall Bridge. We've created a premium office environment that helps retain and attract the best talent. We aim to make every one of our customers more productive through thoughtfully designed spaces, the latest technology and great service."

The office will open in January 2025 and is already attracting interest from local and national businesses seeking to expand their presence in the town. Copthall Bridge is located in central Harrogate, a short walk from the train and bus stations.
