Gilbanks, a provider of premium serviced office environments in the UK, will open a new location at Five St Philips in autumn. Designed to meet the needs of professional services and creative businesses, the development will offer high-specification, fully serviced workspaces in a restored heritage building.

The site will provide a range of flexible private office suites, complemented by executive meeting and presentation rooms equipped with video conferencing and large HD displays. All workspaces are designed with acoustic insulation and fitted with ergonomic furnishings, including sit/stand desks and high-end ergonomic task chairs. Offices are supported by secure, high-performance internet infrastructure, offering 10 Gbps fibre connectivity with a 1 Gbps satellite backup line that’s configurable to individual business requirements.

The building will also house a contemporary reception hall, business lounge and a rooftop terrace with views across Birmingham city centre. Gilbanks will deliver full reception and concierge services, as well as operational support, including mail handling, cleaning and utilities management. An all-inclusive pricing model will cover business rates, service charges, insurance and office setup costs. Complimentary refreshments, including ethically sourced coffee and a selection of teas, will also be available to tenants throughout the workspace.

A curated calendar of networking events, guest speaker sessions, exhibitions and local business partnerships will further enhance the tenant experience by fostering collaboration and connection within the Gilbanks community.

Located in Birmingham’s central business district and overlooking Cathedral Square, Five St Philips benefits from immediate access to key transportation links, including Snow Hill Station, Bull Street Metro and Birmingham New Street Station. Meanwhile, the surrounding area offers a wide selection of cafés; restaurants; retail destinations like the Bullring; and cultural hubs, such as the Jewellery Quarter, thereby combining professional convenience with urban amenities.
