Southern region to be run out of London
Henry Boot Developments has said it is closing its Bristol office as part of a restructuring which will see its southern business run out of London.
The firm’s managing director Ed Hutchinson said: “After lengthy consideration, we have taken the decision to rationalise our business operations in the south of the country and, as a result, will be closing the HBD office in Bristol.
“We now view the South-west and South-east regions as a single consolidated Southern region and will look to perform the majority of our Southern business activities from our London office.”
The firm said just one redundancy has been made as a result, the firm’s head of Bristol office.
As well as London, Henry Boot has offices in Glasgow, Leeds, Manchester, Sheffield and Birmingham.
