British Business Bank announces move to new offices in Sheffield city centre

The British Business Bank is relocating to the newly-redeveloped Steel City House in Sheffield city centre at the end of October.

The move follows on from the expansion of the bank’s Sheffield operations since it became an independent plc in November 2014.

The UK’s national economic development bank will occupy the top two floors of the newly-redeveloped premises, off West Street, which will provide a near-doubling of its current office space.

Keith Morgan, British Business Bank CEO said: “Our move to Steel City House reaffirms our commitment to Sheffield and the region more generally.

“The growth of the British Business Bank has created high-quality finance jobs in the city as we continue to meet our objectives of providing increased volumes and choice of finance for smaller businesses.

“Colleagues across the Bank are excited to be moving to this unique building, which speaks to both the history and the future of the Sheffield region”.

Margot James, Small Business Minister, added: “Building an economy that works for all is an important part of our Industrial Strategy, which is creating the conditions for businesses of all types to start up and grow.

“The British Business Bank’s expansion in Sheffield will continue to grow the Northern Powerhouse, creating jobs and helping small businesses in the region get the access to finance they need to succeed.”
