Northumberland Business Park puts new opportunities on the horizon for local B2B marketer

Horizon Works has opened its new office and event space in a move aiming to provide further room for growth.

The B2B marketing agency hopes to provide more support to its clients, industry networks and partners. The company has purchased 2,335 sq ft purpose-built two-storey office building on Northumberland Business Park, near Cramlington.

Since moving to the new site earlier this year, Horizon Works has invested in new internal facilities, including an event space for 50 people. The new site also includes hot desks.

Samantha Vassallo, founder and managing director of Horizon Works, said: “Our new headquarters will enable us to expand our workforce as we grow - and provides our staff with a spacious, comfortable working environment in a fantastic location.

“Northumberland Business Park is easily accessible and close to some of the North East’s key manufacturing and pharma hubs: it was therefore a highly attractive site when we were looking to invest in a new office.

“The purchase of the building and subsequent refurbishment means we can now support our clients and network partners - as well as the local business community - with a place where they can come and do business and make new connections.

“We’re really proud of what we’ve achieved since launching in 2010 and this marks the beginning on an exciting new phase as we approach our second decade in business.”

The new HQ was opened by Cllr Richard Wearmouth, chair of Advance Northumberland, which is an economic regeneration firm set up by Northumberland County Council.

The new space will be used for seminars, workshops, presentations, networking events and product launches.

Horizon Works was previously headquartered in Gosforth, working across sectors including manufacturing, health and sciences, technology and public services.

Cllr Richard Wearmouth added: “We’re delighted Horizon Works has chosen to relocate in the county and is looking to expand over the next few months.

“For new companies as well as those looking to expand, Northumberland offers so many benefits and this is another great example of a forward thinking company flourishing in the county.”
