The firm, which is one of the biggest staffing businesses focused on science, technology, engineering and mathematics (Stem) roles, is taking more than 10,000 square feet on a ten-year lease at Cadworks in Glasgow city centre.

It features Scotland’s first “cycle-in access ramp”, anti-viral air purifying paint, extensive storage for bicycles and electric vehicles, and has formed partnerships with grassroots community organisations.
