John Good Group has opened its new HQ at Quarry House on the Hesslewood Office Park in Hessle.
The opening of the purpose-built office was marked by the company’s Annual General Meeting, where John Good Group welcomed the Good family shareholders and wider stakeholders to the new building. The event was also the first AGM of the modern era, attended by three generations of the Good family.
CEO Adam Walsh said:“The official opening of Quarry House is a significant milestone for us, celebrating not just a new office, but the culmination of two years of transition and growth. Quarry House, alongside our beautiful Hesslewood Office Park, provides the perfect environment for our team today and for future generations of employees and business partners.
“Quarry House is also a testament to John Good Group’s commitment to sustainability and investing in creating a working environment that prioritises both well-being and performance. Every choice was considered from multiple perspectives including commercial, employee experience and sustainability. The project team, led by our Chief Financial Officer Ben Norman, with input from Julie Ornsby, Steve Pullen, Darren Howden, and Michelle Taft, have done a superb job. They should be congratulated for what they have delivered for the business and their colleagues.”
The newly-constructed Quarry House is a cornerstone of the Group’s Fast Forward plans, which emphasises strategic growth alongside commitments to People, Planet, and Performance. The design of Quarry House was guided by a sustainable and local-first philosophy, using nearby suppliers to support the local economy. This sustainable approach includes locally-sourced timber, recycled fishing nets repurposed into a boardroom carpet, and reclaimed materials from a Canary Wharf building for raised access flooring.
