Firm moves into Callaghan Square space

National law firm Clarke Willmott has moved into its new office in Callaghan Square, Cardiff.

The firm will occupy the second floor of 2 Callaghan Square, in the heart of the city centre’s main business district.

Moving 26 colleagues from the previous office at Pierhead Street, the firm has created an open-plan office space, allowing hybrid working and accommodating both in-person and remote working.

Vicky Kells, head of the Clarke Willmott Cardiff office, said: ‘We are so excited to be relocating to this new office, marking a new chapter in our journey.

‘The move comes just before our 10-year anniversary and we couldn’t be happier to be here in Cardiff, in a new city-centre office and celebrating the successes of the last decade.’

Clarke Willmott CEO Peter Swinburn said: ‘The relocation of the Cardiff office supports our way of working and strengthens our commitment to sustainability. The building’s design aligns with our ESG goals, including reaching net zero by 2040, and wherever possible, we’ve reused and repurposed our original furniture.

‘We’re undergoing a full review and overhaul of our property portfolio. So far, this has included opening a new purpose-built office in Birmingham, unveiling a major refurbishment of our Taunton office, and relocating in Bristol and Cardiff. We will continue this journey with our London, Manchester and Southampton offices, in order to build for the future.’
