A propos du client
As a financial services provider, this client is the market leader in its country of origin. It benefits from its strong presence in many different countries and as such is considered a point of reference in the European field of banking. The company has formed part of the Luxembourg business community for over 40 years and currently employs around 150 people in the Luxembourg subsidiary.
In order to enhance its image and demonstrate its loyalty to the country, the Group decided to have a new headquarter building erected in the Cloche d’Or area and thus regroup all employees in one unique building.
Le context
Top management sees the move to a modern new building with state of the art equipement as an opportunity to accelerate changes with respect to digitalisation and ways of working.
In addition to this, the employees have to adapt to several major changes affecting their transport, a reduced number of parking spaces, working in open space areas and adapting to a new environment shared with other subsidiaries.
All the office furniture was replaced, providing only limited storage for each department.
The building comprises a wide variety of diferent meeting rooms and working spaces shared with the other subsidiaries.
