Agilico Unveils Innovation Day at New Purpose-Built Facility in Team Valley, with Mayor of Gateshead Visit
We are excited to announce our latest Innovation Day, which presents us with the opportunity to also officially open our new facility in Team Valley, Gateshead, which we moved into just over a month ago.
The official opening of the new Team Valley office on October 18, 2023, allows us to invite colleagues, clients and partners to witness our commitment to future growth, sustainability and collaboration.
The state-of-the-art, purpose-built office facility is set to reshape our company’s operations, enhance sustainability, and foster greater collaboration among our teams.
Our new facility combines two separate offices into one modern, energy-efficient building. The decision aligns with our commitment to reducing our environmental impact and creating a more sustainable future for Gateshead.
”It will be fantastic to attend this Innovation Day to see first-hand, not only this great facility, which is purpose-built for Agilico, and which clearly demonstrates their commitment to sustainability in Gateshead, but also to hear more about how they are supporting other businesses with innovative solutions that help to fight against climate change. It's crucial that we all think about ways that we can be more eco-conscious, and I'm proud that businesses, such as Agilico, who are based here in Gateshead, are fully committed to doing this.
Councillor Eileen McMasterMayor of Gateshead
The 20,000 sq. foot facility has been meticulously designed to maximise efficiency and productivity, providing an exceptional working environment for Agilico employees. Moreover, we have invested in cutting-edge technology to measure and monitor energy consumption, in line with our commitment to ISO 14001 standards and pursuit of achieving net-zero emissions.
”Not only is it a more energy-efficient, economical, brighter building for us, but it combines two sites. We consolidate operations and develop working synergies, as well as fostering that all-important sense of collaboration. We are unapologetically proud of our approach and innovation in sustainability and people, and the Innovation Day presents us with the opportunity for our community to see it in action for themselves.
Warren ColbyRegional Managing Director
The consolidated office space will initially accommodate approximately 70 employees across various departments, including finance, sales, IT and telecoms support, engineering, human resources, account management, and business development teams. This move aims to encourage better communication and collaboration among different teams, fostering a more united and efficient workforce.
Our investment extends beyond infrastructure; it demonstrates our commitment to creating job opportunities and contributing to the local community’s growth. We are actively seeking talent to fill roles in business development, finance, account management, and support engineering.
”We're looking for individuals who share our passion for technology and sustainability. This move opens up exciting possibilities for career growth and development in the North East.
Mark BryceSales Director
This remarkable development marks a significant step forward for Agilico, positioning us as a leader in sustainable business practices and regional growth.
