JLL and Knight Frank acted as joint letting agents on the deal, which will see the firm move into 740 Aztec West. Owned by Legal & General, the building is due to be upgraded to include a new reception area and extra cycle parking.
Hannah Waterhouse, office agency director at JLL in Bristol, said: “This latest letting represents the ongoing flight to quality that we’re seeing from occupiers, who are continuing to recognise the value business parks can offer, particularly from a cost and benefit point of view when comparing to the city centre.
"L&G is a landlord committed to bringing about this sustainable change and is very focused on building improvement.
“There’s a strong appetite for premium out-of-town accommodation in well-established locations like Aztec West, which have the transport links, parking and wider facilities to support modern hybrid working patterns. It was great to successfully complete this letting for Dovetail & Slate and help them find the perfect location for their headquarters.”
Guy Walker, chief executive at Talentia Group, added: “Bristol is thriving for us because it offers access to exceptional talent, a dynamic business ecosystem and a culture of innovation that mirrors our own.
