Case Study: Grant Thornton achieves a more collaborative, flexible workplace with Oktra

Grant Thornton refreshes 2,800 sq ft Leicester office in 6 weeks with Oktra

Grant Thornton, an international accountancy firm, faced the challenge of an outdated Leicester office that no longer supported its staff's collaborative needs or its new company-wide flexible working model. Oktra was enlisted to design and build a new workspace that would promote agility, dynamic work practices, and more efficient collaboration.

Oktra implemented a dynamic workplace solution featuring open-plan desking supplemented with phone booths, formal meeting rooms, soft seating, and high tables. The design included acoustic booths for focused work and a tech-free teapoint to encourage staff connection. The result was a new 2,800 sq ft office that intentionally brings people together, promotes transparency, and enables both in-person and virtual collaboration, successfully supporting Grant Thornton's flexible working strategy.
