MIRA makeover is blueprint for success
Part of the UK’s dedicated Enterprise Zone for the transport technology sector has been given a facelift by leading office design, refurbishment and fit out company Blueprint Interiors. The firm was tasked with
creating a new shared food and social hub, comprising a canteen, communal space and Costa Coffee, at MIRA Technology Park. The 12-week project saw Blueprint develop the concept, design the 5,650sq ft space, source the furniture, materials and equipment and then carry out the refurbishment and fit out. It was done in two phases to
ensure the facility remained operational throughout. Blueprint incorporated into the
design several heritage photographs of the site, which has been in use as an engineering and development park since the early 1940s. Chloe Vickers, Creative Director at
Blueprint Interiors, said: “We helped MIRA Technology Park to define how the project would be implemented on-site which, in turn, informed all our design decisions. This ensured the overall success of the project, because we were able to work with the client from day one to deliver a solution both to the design and the operational requirements.”
Cambridge & Counties banks on Leicester
Cambridge & Counties Bank has changed its registered office to New Walk in Leicester, home of its headquarters and the majority of its staff. The switch is described by the niche bank as a
statement of its commitment to Leicester, growing its head office by adding new staff drawn from the talented pool of people in the county.
‘The Bank has found a deep pool of talent here, at all levels and for all departments’
Mike Kirsopp (pictured), Chief Executive Officer,
said: “Leicester has been home for the Bank since its launch in 2012 and making New Walk our registered office underlines how we are banking on a long-term future in the city. “We’ve grown from 12 people to over 120 since
2012, with almost 100 in Leicester. The Bank has found a deep pool of talent here, at all levels and for all departments. “We’ve become embedded in the business
life of Leicester and engaged enthusiastically with a number of charities and organisations, including Leicestershire Cares, which enables our staff to put something back into the community. Leicester is our home, and this makes it official.”
The Bank’s recently-appointed new Chairman
Simon Moore said: “I’m delighted that Cambridge & Counties is officially now a Leicester company. “Being in the city really works for us. There is a
great pool of talented people. It’s the right place to be to get the people we need to grow and the East Midlands has proved to have a strong customer base for us.”
