Wolverhampton Office Space to Rent
Wolverhampton has one of the smallest serviced office markets in the Midlands with less than 10 offices in the city centre to choose from. Whilst choice is limited the spaces that are available range in price from under £100 per desk per month for low-tier fit outs to £210 per desk per month for a mid-tier space with comfortable fit out, which makes it an attractive option for people who are looking for an office that is cost effective and not in one of the major Midlands office markets like Birmingham, Nottingham or Derby. There is a small amount of higher quality flexible space available which gives occupiers more on site amenities and services with prices up to £375 per desk per month. – Last updated

The Wolverhampton market
Who is based in Wolverhampton
The majority of office space in Wolverhampton is taken up by public sector, education and professional services. Corporate headquarters do not chose Wolverhampton as a base so the vast majority of office space occupiers are local smaller businesses concentrated around more traditional activities such as solicitors, accountants and financial advice.

Wolverhampton is almost completely older converted buildings with very little purpose built, modern office space available. Rates for this type of space are from £79 per desk per month for the most basic space with limited facilities up to £210 per desk for a more comfortable fit out with additional amenities such as meeting rooms, manned reception service, parking etc. Serviced offices in close by areas of Willenhall, Essington and Bilston are cost effective with a limited range of amenities but serve well as functional no frills office space without a city centre commute.
How Wolverhampton compares to other areas of the Midlands
Wolverhampton is one of the cheapest city centres in the Midlands but this is based on the quality of the stock rather than being a good value proposition for higher quality space at a knock down price. Prime offices in the area are almost entirely taken up by public sector and education sectors on longer term leases and so inaccessible for smaller teams or the flex space market. Serviced offices that are of a higher grade fit out are priced at £210 – 375 per desk per month so still well below the national average of £498 per desk. Wolverhampton will serve well for smaller local teams but any who need a larger space with amenity rich facilities would need to look more toward Birmingham.
