Manchester, United Kingdom Department Full time

Our Story
Department operates better workspaces where people and businesses succeed together. We specialise in coworking desks, private offices and creative studios across Manchester and Leeds. Our communities include businesses of varying sizes and stages; from freelancers, to start-ups, to global enterprises. Department’s workspaces are powered by 100% green energy, with coffee shops, bars, wellness facilities, meeting rooms and breakout spaces all under one roof. 

What makes Department unique is our expansive neighbourhood locations in Spinningfields, St John’s and Leeds Dock. These prime locations give members access to a network of services, amenities and partnerships which goes beyond one single workspace – we’re creating ecosystems where businesses and people thrive. 

The journey began in 2014 when Department’s founding company, Allied London, created a coworking concept in Manchester named Hello Work. Allied London are a leading placemaking and property design group, who recognised the progressive movement towards flexible working environments. Building on the success of Hello Work, the brand evolved over time into the leading operating brand, Department.
