Peninsula Group's Croner-i invests in new Bankside HQ

Croner-i has invested millions in a new HQ at 240 Blackfriars Road.

The firm, part of North West business services group Peninsula, provides information to HR, health and safety, tax, accounting and compliance professionals.

Its new base, located in London’s Bankside district, features collaborative working areas, break-out spaces and a studio for e-learning.

240 Blackfriars Road also houses a Sky Bar complete with a baby grand piano and views of the capital’s skyline.

Croner-i said the office will house its content and technical writers alongside its technology, sales, product development and client experience teams.

Bertrand Stern-Gillet, chief exec of Croner-i, said: “Not only will our new headquarters meet our aspirations for growth, but it also reflects our ambition to be recognised as the leading provider of information to HR, health and safety, tax, accounting and compliance professionals within the UK.

“240 Blackfriars Road is a superb working space and this move represents a significant milestone and clearly demonstrates our commitment by giving us the base to expand our workforce to 150 employees.”

Peter Done, Peninsula’s group MD, commented: “This is a very exciting move for Croner-i and builds, right in the heart of the capital city, on the growing demand for their services.

“The group has a proud culture of innovation and constant improvement and the new London office for Croner-i is a testimony to this.”

He added: “As some businesses are relocating their operations away from London, we look forward to building towards economic growth in this fantastic location.”
