OnBuy unveils plans for new Bournemouth HQ
Online marketplace OnBuy is relocating to a new headquarters space in Bournemouth town centre as part of its expansion plans,
The move follows a year of growth for the company which means it now needs to scale up its offices to accommodate an influx of new employees which has taken its headcount to more than 100.
Cas Paton, founder and chief executive of OnBuy said: “While plenty of companies are downsizing in favour of ‘WFH’ or hot-desking, I’ve always believed in creating a space where our team can think, do and thrive. We have fully adopted the need for a hybrid model ensuring we attract and develop the very best talent, but the offices are here to be the heart of the company, to provide a fantastic hub for collaboration and a place to come and enjoy being at work.
“The Southwest is where OnBuy was born, and I truly believe that there is a world of talent beyond the M25 to be tapped into. We’re known for hiring the best and brightest, and with our coastal base we’ve been able to bring on board a range of people with diverse skills that will help take us to the next level.”
The move to the new space will happen in February 2022.
