Google, which employs 6,400 people in Britain, plans a multi-million-pound refurbishment of its offices within the Central Saint Giles development it is buying, close to Covent Garden in central London. “We have been privileged to operate in the UK for nearly 20 years, and our purchase of the Central Saint Giles development reflects our continued commitment to the country’s growth and success,” said Ruth Porat, CFO of Google’s parent company Alphabet.
Google plans to refit the building so it is adapted for in-person teamwork and has meeting rooms for hybrid working, as well as creating more space for individuals.
The new refurbishment will also feature outdoor covered working spaces to enable work in the fresh air, the company said.
The building had been owned by a joint venture between Legal & General Investment Management Real Assets and Mitsubishi Estate London Limited.
