Senior appointment for Yorkshire office group

Office group WorkWell has appointed a new centre manager for its Copthall Bridge office redevelopment in Harrogate town centre.

Experienced manager Jo Little will head up operations at the fully refurbished three-floor building at Station Bridge.

Commenting on the appointment, Oliver Corrigan, managing director of WorkWell, said: “It was vital that we appointed a driven, experienced centre manager to match the aspirations of Copthall Bridge. Jo fits the bill perfectly, with over a decade of proven success in previous roles.

“Designed to meet diverse business needs across various sectors, Copthall Bridge aims to enhance productivity and promote employee well-being while raising the bar for premium office space in Harrogate. We’re delighted to have Jo in position as we launch this stunning new addition to the serviced office scene.”

WorkWell’s significant investment reflects its commitment to supporting the growth of businesses in the local area by providing them with top-tier facilities and a vibrant, thriving work community.”
