Sheffield Chamber of Commerce has relocated its headquarters to an eighth-floor space of almost 3,500 sq feet at Westfield House, fronting Charter Row and set in the heart of Sheffield’s city centre.
It will house not only the core Chamber team, but also colleagues from Sheffield International Trade Centre. The aim is to ensure the whole team sits under one roof, to greater streamline operations and benefit SCCI members.
The soon to be 22-strong team says the new environment, with its central and accessible location, emphasises its long-term commitment to supporting Sheffield’s vibrant business community and will make it easier to engage with existing and prospective members.
Louisa Harrison-Walker, Chief Executive of Sheffield Chamber of Commerce, said: “Our move to Westfield House marks an exciting new chapter for Sheffield Chamber. The new location embodies the energy and ambition of our city. Being positioned at Westfield House, near the very businesses and communities we support, is a testament to our commitment to driving growth and opportunity for all organisations here in Sheffield.
The move has been made possible with help from commercial property specialist Colloco, legal specialists Irwin Mitchell, IT infrastructure from ITS Technologies and FluidOne, and a generous donation of office furniture from Rider Level Bucknall and Westfield Health.
The Chamber is a not-for-profit organisation made up of a community of board members, council members, patrons, and champions. This community is where businesspeople from around the region can share their expertise and insight to shape what the Chamber has to say on prominent issues.
