Locations across the UK and Ireland
We have over 1,500 colleagues working together across five locations. While Potters Bar remains our headquarters in the UK, we also have teams in Bristol, the Isle of Man, central London, Worthing and Dublin.
In line with our drive to achieve Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, we commissioned substantial refurbishments of our London and Potters Bar offices during the pandemic. Additionally, in late 2022, we moved our Bristol team to a newly constructed energy-efficient building.
We’re proud that all three properties have been awarded SKA Gold ratings.
Today, we’ve fully embraced hybrid working and encourage our teams to use technology to collaborate and engage with our customers.
