Options Opens New Central London Office
London – February 26, 2014 – Options, the leading private financial cloud provider for the global capital markets industry, today announced it has opened a new office in the heart of London’s West End. Located at 1 Berkeley Street, the new office is the IaaS provider’s first in central London and will be dedicated to client support, account management, business development and sales. It will complement Options’ existing London office in Wimbledon.
The move to central London is a key part of a global initiative to move Options’ sales and support teams closer to key customers and follows a 12 months in which the firm expanded their Midtown office in New York to 100 Park Avenue and opened a further office in Chicago. The West End location was carefully chosen so that it was within 10 minutes walking distance of a majority of the firm’s central London clients thus ensuring a great deal more face time for clients with Options engineers and account management teams. The firm also expects to hire additional senior sales and business staff in the next few months to be based out of the Berkeley Square office.
