Healthcare recruitment agency expands into larger Sheffield city centre office HQ

Specialist healthcare recruitment agency Hallam Medical, a provider of advanced practitioners and healthcare support, has relocated to larger premises in Sheffield.

The firm, which employed 50 staff at its former HQ at City Gate on St Mary’s Gate, has taken 8,650 sq ft of space on the second floor of the eight storey building Westfield House and has already added 10 more employees with a further 10 being recruited next month.

The 15-year deal was brokered by the Sheffield office of Knight Frank on behalf of health and wellbeing provider Westfield Health, with Ben Spencer from Wake Smith Solicitors providing Westfield’s legal advice.

Situated on Charter Row, Westfield House has delivered 80,000 sq ft of high specification city centre offices and is wholly owned by Westfield Health, which occupies 50,000 sq ft of space in the building following a move from previous Division Street headquarters in 2016.

Deborah McCain, CEO at Hallam Medical, commented: “We provide highly skilled practitioners into settings and services throughout the UK, but we are proud to be based in Sheffield where it all began in 2007. Our move to Westfield House comes at a time of continued growth and success, with an active recruitment drive currently underway.”

Westfield House is close to The Moor shopping and leisure facilities and well placed for access to food and drink outlets on Division Street and the Devonshire Green area plus the new Heart of the City retail development currently underway.

Hallam Medical is a framework accredited recruitment agency and provides temporary staff into NHS and private healthcare services throughout the UK offering 1,000s of full time, part time and ad-hoc shifts in various settings and services across the UK.

Peter Whiteley, partner and head of Knight Frank’s Sheffield office, added: “Hallam Medical has taken the second floor over a 15-year lease, and moved in after final fit-out work was completed.

“Westfield House underwent an extensive refurbishment to the interior and exterior of the property by owners Westfield Health and its prime location adjacent to the Heart of The City phase two development makes it a highly desirable place for businesses to operate from.

“In total Westfield Health has brought 30,000 sq ft of fully refurbished office accommodation in this building to market over the last few years, at a time when supply for quality, central office space in the city is relatively limited.”
