The Post Building

Aberley have been working alongside the team at Nationwide Building Society as they created a state of the art workplace at their new 91,000 ft2 location over four levels at The Post Building, Holborn, London.

Aberley were asked to provide an initial view of the ideal employee journey for new and existing colleagues. Through design insight, Aberley were able to incorporate these journeys into physical building elements, and support with the associated requirements of the building and services infrastructure. This included aspects of facilities support services such as the concept of ‘workplace hosts’ to help embed culture and provide a helping hand to colleagues.

It is a great example of Nationwide Building Society's effort to maximise employee engagement and support, which looks to increase workplace ownership and therefore improve performance through the new working environment. Through a programme of engagement, we’ve supported Nationwide to enable a collective ownership of spaces aligned to a personal sense of place. We’re looking forward to teams being able to use the space when it’s safe to do so.
