Ashtenne has purchased the vacant property in a joint venture which means that Hays will share in any profits if Ashtenne adds value to the property over the next five years.

Ian Watson, Joint Chief Executive of Ashtenne, said: "We are developing a track record of successfully working with corporate real estate owners to help them maximise the value of their property holdings in the context of their strategic business objectives.

Hays was represented by Clews & Co and DTZ.
