Better Recruitment Opportunities
Serviced offices are often located in prestigious areas that SMEs may not be able to afford otherwise, which means that you can take advantage of all the benefits that a central city location can offer your business.
One of the main advantages of this from a HR perspective is that it widens the talent pool when it comes to recruitment. Up-and-coming talent usually gravitate towards cities so you can find young talent with huge potential, nurture them and train them to play a larger role in your business.
With city locations also comes easier to access public transport routes.

Plus, with plenty of amenities available nearby, a convenient city location is likely to help you attract more applicants to your business.

Forget about waiting for lines to be connected and equipment to arrive - one of the main benefits of choosing a serviced office is that it can save time. All the equipment, furniture and utilities are already set up for you, so you can get up and running immediately.
In addition, owners of serviced offices will make sure they provide the best quality equipment, services and facilities to attract businesses. That means your business can enjoy access to the very best, at a fraction of the price of buying it yourself.
Better equipment may mean happier employees who are more engaged with their work, which is great from a HR point of view. Recruitment can be a lengthy and costly process, so retaining your current employees make good business sense. Having a serviced office with up-to-date equipment will help their work stay relevant and competitive, as well as offering new opportunities for employees to train up in using state-of-the-art equipment.
