Case Study: Collaborative global centre for magic circle law firm at One New Bailey in Salford

Working alongside TP Bennett who designed the new global centre in Salford, JPA Workspaces were chosen to provide furniture consultancy, supply, project management and delivery for the new 64,000 square foot office space.

With five floors of open-plan office space to accommodate 650+ people, our team gave each office floor a collaborative heart at its entry point, to encourage staff communication and collaboration.

The main reception and Sky Lounge are situated on the seventh floor along with flexible seating and activity-based work settings to host visiting clients and employees alike. We connected Skype-enabled meetings and interview rooms, as well as a flexible seminar suite, to the Sky Lounge via a folding glass wall which, once opened, provides enough space to accommodate large ‘town hall’ meetings.

The main staff café is also located on the top floor, giving views across Salford and Manchester city centre, as well as access to external terrace space that wraps around all four sides of the building.

Professional services workspace questions

Frequently asked

What do professional services firms typically ask you for?
Client meeting suites and lounges, open-plan and private offices, hybrid work settings, conferencing and video-call rooms, and staff café spaces — offices that present well to clients while still working hard for focused, everyday work.

Can you fit out around a working office?
Yes. We phase work around your business, including out-of-hours and weekend installation where needed, so client meetings and fee-earning work carry on uninterrupted.

Do you handle the whole project or just the furniture?
The full lifecycle: consultancy, design, procurement, project management, delivery and ongoing support. At One New Bailey in Salford we provided furniture consultancy, supply, project management and delivery across 64,000 square feet, working alongside the architects TP Bennett.

How do you support hybrid working?
With activity-based settings rather than rows of identical desks: dedicated Teams and Zoom rooms, bookable collaboration space, quiet focus areas and flexible layouts that can be rearranged as working patterns change.

Can you help with our sustainability reporting?
Yes. We audit existing furniture before specifying new, reuse where it makes sense, and provide verified carbon and waste figures your firm can use directly in ESG and client reporting.

What scale of project can you deliver?
From a single meeting suite to a multi-floor headquarters — our largest professional services project housed more than 650 people across five floors, each given a collaborative heart at its entry point.
