p>After almost doubling its staff numbers in the last three years, specialist lender United Trust Bank is aiming to take its business to another level with a move to new offices in Moorgate.
 
The United Trust Bank team will be moving to the 28th floor of CityPoint in Moorgate. Although the UTB team is no stranger to high rise working, after already residing on the 11th floor of New Zealand House in Haymarket over the last 10 years.

With the vast increase of staff over the past few years, UTB has now outgrown the space available at its current offices, despite securing extra space on an additional floor last year.

As a result of the growing team, at the end of last year, the banks’ Directors agreed to take a new lease on offices in the prestigious CityPoint, in the heart of London’s financial district.

Commenting on the new move, Harley Kagan, Managing Director of United Trust Bank, said: “This is a very exciting time for United Trust Bank. The business has grown substantially over the last few years as we’ve added new products and attracted a much wider broker base.

“Demand for our services continues to grow and we have plans to develop the business still further with additional new products and enhancements in the pipeline. With our recruitment drive set to continue throughout 2015, we needed to take decisive action.

“The new offices in CityPoint will give us the space we need to deliver our expansion plans and give our team a superb working environment. As you’d expect, the building is being equipped with the latest technology and this will complement the ongoing development of our own IT and communication systems. And being situated in The City we’ll have excellent transport links and be close to many of the brokers and businesses with whom we regularly transact.

“Although the views we have from New Zealand House are amazing, the views across London from our new offices are equally stunning. We’re looking forward to welcoming brokers, colleagues and customers to our new offices after Easter.”

The 122m tall building, CityPoint, previously known as Britannic House and Britannic Tower, was completed in 1967 and refurbished in 2001.

Despite having an extra 5m added to its height during the refurbishment, CityPoint is now the fifth tallest building in the City of London.
