Following significant investment, it has revamped the ground floor of its premises at 17 Corstorphine Road in Edinburgh and, in Glasgow, moved from 12 to 28 Bothwell Street in the heart of the city.

Both initiatives will give the 250-staff firm increased visibility and heightened profile in Scotland’s two biggest cities, as well as being a vote of confidence in the health of the office market, which continues its post-Covid recovery.

They will also enable the firm to further strengthen its head office and support functions. New roles are now in place in IT, HR, finance, business development, marketing, audit and compliance, and these will further facilitate the firm’s growth ambitions.

Alan Gordon, DM Hall’s senior partner, who has overseen a period of continuous expansion and geographical reach, said: “Our Edinburgh HQ has undergone a complete facelift and the relocation in Bothwell Street has created a working environment which is more conducive to the new world of hybrid working.

“As well as a more imposing frontage with new signage, the Glasgow office has been given a contemporary fit-out and improved IT, as well as a welcoming social space for staff and more appropriate facilities for private and confidential meetings with clients.

“Our people are increasingly coming back to the office and, we want to encourage staff to collaborate and exchange ideas and information with colleagues. For this, we were keen to create the best conditions for them to do so.”

Glasgow and Edinburgh investments come on top of a significant spend of several hundreds of thousands of pounds in recent years on some of the firm’s 23 offices, the most recent being Perth which has relocated to new premises in the city centre.

Relocations or refurbishments have also taken place at Inverness, Hamilton, Aberdeen, Oban, Falkirk, Stirling, Prestwick, and Galashiels. Plans are also in development for investment in the firm’s offices in Carlisle and Kendal in Cumbria, which it acquired in 2023.

Last year the firm opened an office in Truro, in Cornwall, where it had identified a large, untapped market and already has an increasing flow of business, and is exploring further opportunities in the North of England.

Mr Gordon added: “In previous years, the firm tended to be housed in traditional Victorian or Edwardian period offices, but the direction of travel now is towards more modern and spacious open plan offices, in a combination of both city centre locations and edge-of-town business parks.

“We have great pool of talent, for whom we want to create the work settings that allow them to fulfil their potential. We also have an enviable portfolio of clients for whom we are creating an environment which reinforces the firm’s long-held philosophy that they come first in all our considerations.

“All our recent activity has been driven by growth, which we expect will be further catalysed by the steps we are taking to improve our business estate.”
