Aire Park: Major financial firm to relocate 300-strong team to Leeds' new South Bank mixed use development

Interactive Investor, which manages more than £70 billion in assets, will take over a full floor at 3 South Brook Street - one of the first buildings completed at the vast new site next to the former Tetley’s Brewery.

The company says the move will give its staff a modern workplace in a growing part of the city.

Christopher Crooks, Chief Technology Officer at Interactive Investor, said: “We are delighted to be moving our Leeds operations to Aire Park, where we will be able to give our staff a superb working environment with the best-in-class facilities on offer.

"We are particularly pleased to be moving to a brownfield redevelopment site and one with such history as the Tetley’s brewery."

Aire Park, developed by Vastint UK, is one of the biggest regeneration projects in Leeds. When finished, it will include a large new city-centre park, over 1,300 homes, and more than one million square feet of commercial space.
